Fall Leaf Change Preview

The best time to come here for Fall leaf color can occur anywhere between early November through mid-December. The several weeks before and after this date range, although iffy, may be good as well.
It's not a bad idea to call either myself at Plant Information, (626) 821-3236, or the Arboretum general number, (626) 821-3222, at least a week before you come to get in idea how the Fall color change is proceeding.

Here's some Fall color shots from years past:

Fall 2014 Leaf Tour

Thank you everybody who came for the 2014 Fall Leaf Tour. It was fun tour, although the leaves were not cooperating. Here's a link to the images I used to show how fall usually looks here. Each of the photos also has its location in the information section of the slide show.
