deciduous foliage

Trees' shedding canopy

Deciduous foliage refers to leaves from trees and shrubs that shed annually, typically in autumn.

The phrase emphasizes the leaves themselves rather than the plants bearing them—often in contexts of seasonal color, landscape design, or leaf cleanup: The deciduous foliage blazed orange and red along the ridge.
