fall colors

October's leafy palette

Fall colors are the red, orange, yellow, and gold hues that deciduous leaves turn before dropping in autumn.

The phrase often refers to the phenomenon as a seasonal attraction: We drove through Vermont to see the fall colors.

Peak fall colors draw tourists to forested regions, particularly in the northeastern United States.
