The Glory of Fall
Pecan trees are not known for brilliant fall color. During normal years, pecan trees hold their green leaves up until the first killing freeze. When the freeze comes, pecan leaves turn brown and fall from the trees almost over night. But this year's drought has changed everything. Pecan trees are shutting down early and putting on a beautiful display of golden leaves.
