A Taste of Autumn in Oak Lawn

A friend of mine with David Rolston Landscape Architects sent me this picture with a note:

Since I’m out and about during the day, I’ve been noticing all the maples, sweetgums, oak, etc and taking a few shots. For those who don’t believe in fall color in Dallas, I offer this specimen. This ginkgo tree is in full glory this week at Lee Park, Turtle Creek and Hall. They’re very tricky trees to do well here in Dallas, so it’s even more special. And it’s Frank Welch’s favorite tree, so this one’s for you, Frank. Spectacular!
