Third Blog Post on Mangoes


Looking at this gigapan you can see hints of orange and brown, but there is still a lot of green. The oak trees are still fairly green, the maples are the mostly orange and yellow-tinted leaves you see, and the tulip poplars are turning a lights green showing that they will turn into a yellow for the fall. Each tree's leaves fall at different times. I suspect that this is because they have different rates of absorbing nutrients from the leaves due to the distance from the leaves to the roots and the amount of leaves on the tree.
