Escape in Québec to see the wonderful colors of Autumn
Posted 2018, September 11 - 2:02pm
The season begins in the middle of September and it ends at the beginning of November.
Do you know what are the reasons of the color change?
The changing of the leaves each fall is due not so much to the cooler temperatures as to the decreased light resulting from shorter days. In the maple tree, the accumulation of sugar in the sap is what accounts for the brilliant red of the leaves, whose hue varies depending on the soil composition.
