HOWEVER, my favorite is sure to change many times over the coming weeks.
The point here, crap bag mom-basement-dwelling goEMAW posters, is that we need to be mindful about the here and now and the undisputed number one way to do that during the Autumnal season is to always be on the lookout for mothering rough ridin' fabulous trees, and always have an opinion about which one is the baddest mother rough rider of all. go cats.

There is a maple tree at work, has fully turned red yet, but it's always amazingly red every fall. Top notch tree.There is is a maple tree on my street that has glorious red foliage right now at this very effing second.
Looking forward to large groves of oaks turning colors in a few weeks.

We transplanted a baby oak tree from our old home to our new home when we moved when I was a kid. That son of a bitch is 40 feet tall now. I love looking at it every time I go home. Oak trees grow for like 100 years too.That is awesome. There is a massive 130+ yo burr oak tree in a state park close to Smallville. I love the crooked branches on burr oaks.
I got surprised by some burr oaks on my bike ride yesterday. It was cottonwood, cottonwood, cedarblah blah blah and then BOOM a burr oak along this creek.

Most mountain folk are partial to the Aspens, but I’m a Bigtooth Maple guy. They are all over the Wasatch and are brilliant red in the fall. My favorite right now is this one from my run with the pup yesterday after work. We got a bit of snow the other day, but this little Bigtooth is holding on strong.

Today this lil guy is my favorite tree. I planted it like 7 years ago from one of those helicopter seed thingies that fell from one of my other autumn blazes. This is my fav because for some reason all the leaves in the middle turned purplish (go cats) and the ones on the outside are still green.

Today this is my favorite tree. It’s a sycamore that I bought from a nursery on clearance out of season 10 years ago for $8. At the time it was barely a stick. Now, 10 years later, I would estimate it to be 15 feet tall or so. But I don’t like it for it’s fall foliage…the leaves on American Sycamores just kinda turn wilty and brown. It is my fav for 2 reasons:
1. It sheds it’s bark like a snake sheds it’s skin and that’s kewl
2. As you can see in the background, I live on a T-road. My house would be where the vertical part of the T meets the horizontal part. It’s a dead end both ways, so we get minimal traffic (if I see two cars on the same Saturday that’s a weird day). Anyway, I strategically planted that sycamore 10 years ago at a weird angle compared to the rest of the house so when it grew up and people came down our road, when they get to the T they can’t see my front porch because of the sycamore foliage. It has now grown to the point where I can now pee off my front porch with impunity and that’s rad

i have 6 maples in a row going down a hill. there's probably 20 feet of elevation change at most from the top tree to the bottom tree. for some reason, every year the tree at the top changes colors first, then the next tree, and so on. on the back of the house there are other maples further downhill that haven't even started to change yet. why do they change in that order? do the trees at the top get more or less water or something?

serious questions for cats w/ htiq:Seems like small maples change before big maples and maples exposed to more sun change to maples in locations where they are shaded by larger trees... No idea why. Need an EMAW arborist to weigh in on this.

I planted about 10 of them in a straight row spaced about 20' apart. Some are around 25' high and some are only around 12' tall. The tall ones have turned but some of the mid sized ones have just started turning and the smaller ones are still green. I don't have any idea as to why they do what they do, so I just enjoy God's nature. :love:

Water keeps the leaves on longer. Your smaller trees need less and the trees at the bottom of the hill get more. Thus, slower to change in both situations.

The two maples in the yard across from my house have leaves that are an exquisite yellow-orange. Not yellow. Not orange. Yellow-orange.
Well? Pics of these yellorange trees?

And that the tree everyone calls a Chinese Elm (or piss elm) is actually a Siberian Elm. Chinese Elms are really good cool trees unlike their cousins.

They have a pretty sweet map where you can select the State Champion locations layer and then click on each one. Half of them have a picture you click on at the bottom of the info.

Trees are really spectacular here in Smallville this fall. Normally, the maples race ahead of the oaks but the hard frost a couple of weeks ago has the oaks and maples in glorious symphony of color. I don't remember a nicer fall here. Got to sit on the porch and take all this in while passing out Halloween candy last night.

And on the 20th day of October, God looked at the tree that randomly grew in my yard from one of those helicopter seed thingies like 9 years ago, blew a chef’s kiss, and was like, “word.”

I've decided that cottonwoods are the poor man's aspen tree. Their leaves have a similar reflective quality and are quite nice to look at when backlit by low morning sun. I saw some very nice cottonwoods in creek bottoms when driving in the Flint Hills over the weekend.
I love the sound of wind through cottonwoods. Memories of childhood. If they weren't brittle AF and spread cotton everywhere, would love to have a bunch around.

Their cotton is very gross. Would not want to live up close to a cottonwood.I've decided that cottonwoods are the poor man's aspen tree.

All the great Fall days don't make up for cold rainy days like this :barf:I thrive in days like today.
I still prefer summer, but a dreary autumn day is right up there for me.

This tulip tree is a truly weird case. Planted it like 6 years ago, it was about 12 feet tall, then mysteriously died this past spring. I cut it off at ground level in May of this year, and then it exploded up out of the ground and had a lil over 5 feet of growth in 5 months. As the great Goldbloom said, “nature….uhhh…finds a way”

Ha, yep I took it. Mavic Air 2 and each panorama was stitched together and edited in Adobe Lightroom.
