December 3, 2017 : The Nuttall oak (Quercus texana) has turned red-orange and the rattan-vine (Berchemia scandens) climbing on the magnolia is now turning colors, too. The Carolina ash (Fraxinus caroliniana) has dropped its orange leaves, revealing Mickle Hall to the left of the magnolia. The sweet gum (Liquidambar styracilflua) still has its leaves, but they are less noticeable now, as they blend in with the Nuttall oak.
