    really shows how the tree is sucking nutrients back in from the leaf!

      Is that really what happens? I always assumed that the tree just stops giving nutrients to the leaves. Never actually thought about it before.

        yeah it’s the whole reason leaves change colors, if they just stopped supplying nutrients they’d all be green when falling.
