Guess It's Time to Start Raking!

I don't think there can be more than a dozen leaves left on this maple in my front yard. Can't imagine how many bags that will fill up - and then there's the back yard with twice as many!
Wow. Amazing carpet of leaves.

You are covered! Gorgeous colour and it looks wonderful on black.

Oh my! Well they are a beautiful color at least!

That color's so glorious that I'd be tempted to leave them! I love the way you composed this...giving those lovely leaves the attention they deserve.

Wow! They do make a magnificent carpet though!

Amazing carpet of red - beautiful - yes I suppose they will have to be swept up soon !!

Wow such a rich colour !

Just Beautiful —- around here it looks like we never did any of our leaves — I have noticed just how ruby red my Japanese maples are right now- usually they are so dark purple

Beautiful carpet of leaves, we've done the leaves already.
Working on shoveling snow now! lol

@beryl Tried mulching with the lawn mower - but that only worked where they weren't this thick already - too hard for me to push through them. Did get 6 bags raked - only about 10 more to go! They are quickly turning brown.

Impressive but wow hard work

Wow, great color in there, but looks like you've got a lot of work. Great capture.

such a wonderful red carpet, pity it creates so much work.
December 4th, 2021  
oh I love the idea of the mulch that makes, I don't quite get why you all throw this out
December 4th, 2021  
How beautiful though...fav.

@koalagardens Because if you have a lawn underneath, the leaves will kill it if you do not rake them up and off the grass.

They will put nutrients back

great capture
December 4th, 2021

Love it, so colourful
December 4th, 2021  
Beautiful carpet.

@koalagardens I did give the bags to my friend down the street who uses it to put nutrients back into his large garden - so they're really just relocated :)
