| Highbush cranberry |
The last few days on dog walks I noticed a touch of Fall color under the trees in Abercrombie. Usually the last place for fall color is under the trees. But I noticed that in addition to red berries the high bush cranberry leaves were already red. And some nearby salmonberry leaves had turned orange too. These were the only salmonberry leaves I've seen anywhere that have turned and I wondered if there was some 'off gas chemical' or something from the high bush cranberry that made the salmonberry sympathetically change color too?
I also noticed the pond Lillies have turned yellow. Everything else is very much green under the trees. You know it is really Fall when the Devils club leaves turn yellow. But for know the devils club is all bright red berries and very much green leaves.
