question for Seattle folk

[ksmith]

Are things still green in December--lawns, deciduous trees? Do leaves fall? Does anything brown? I know it can be rainy.

My lawn stays green, but we also have a lot of moss in it which is gorgeous rich green. Have to rake up the leaves in fall or they make a dark mat which pales the grass beneath. And grey skies -- think x-files light, as it was filmed just north of Seattle in the same climate zone.

One type of deciduous tree here keeps their brown leaves on until the new growth in spring. I'm not sure of the variety.

I remember X-Files light. Thanks!
