I am coming from Belgium on November 18; will I be too late to enjoy fall colors at The Morton Arboretum ?

    From Our Color Scout:
    While most trees have dropped their colorful leaves by the 3rd week in November, it is still a good time to visit the Arboretum. The weather is crisp, the crowds and cars are fewer, and there are still a lot of colorful leaves on the forest floor and trails to shuffle through and enjoy, and our conifer collections are ready to take center stage. It is also a time when you can see all the animal homes that were hidden by summer and fall foliage. Bird and squirrel nests all are revealed to the observant visitor.
