Happy Fall Y’all!
As you can see, Table Rock State Park is still showing a lot of green. Leaves are falling and some trees are starting to present some color, but the primary hue we are seeing right now is green.
Did You Know? Without Chlorophyl, leaves would be “Fall colors” year-round. Chlorophyl is the green pigment that allows plants to absorb sunlight and make food through photosynthesis. As the days get shorter in the Fall, the production of Chlorophyll slows down and eventually stops, letting the leaves’ “true” color show.
Stay Curious. Stay Kind!
