These lovely textured leaves from my Fagus sylvatica (Beech Tree), a tree which I grow in my urban NYC garden, are often not abscissed in the autumn and remain on the tree until spring. This process is called marcescene which is something I learned from Wikipedia. I just think they make a lovely image.
