Ah, about leaves growing old and falling? We call it "abbaley" here in Nagamese—when they turn yellow and dry up. I see it on the banana and teak trees along my delivery route every year.
But for me, the reds and yellows aren't just about cold weather; it's the heavy rain washing the green clean away before the dry winter. I know this because my father's rice fields turn that golden colour for harvest just before the leaves fall, and our winters are mild, not cold. The biggest change comes from the monsoon ending, not from frost.
