Even small trees are beautiful in fall


Today I took a peek in the backyard. I wanted to see just how many leaves have fallen in the last couple of days. It had been raining on and off for days, and I figured (and was right) that quite a few leaves would have been knocked down by the rain. However, it wasn't all the leaves that caught my eyes...it was this bright red pop of color amongst all the yellows of fall. There amid the hostas lies a Japanese maple. When I think of fall, I think of all the large maples and their beautiful hues or orange, yellow, and red. However, I forget that my little Japanese maple puts on a beautiful fall display of color that far outweighs some of the large trees. So what beautiful surprises have you found in fall?

I agree with you because small trees increase our lawn or house's beauty and many people grow these and make their houses more attractive. I saw many amazing trees in the office of dissertation proposal writing services and this office was looking so good.

It is so pretty! I will take my time out to plant this kind of tree in my garden too. I may need my sister's help but she is busy looking for sites to buy dissertation online and once she finds it and hires them. I will ask her to help me out. She has a lot of knowledge about the kind of tree in the pictures.
