  One of the most colorful Fall trees in this area, the cypress turns this shade of rusty copper before all of its feathery leaves fall off.  Just adding to its beauty, a nearby Senna tree has grown up into the canopy of the cypress, adding a bright spike of yellow blooms to highlight the coppery colors.  There is something extra special about two trees in one and the amazing affects that come from the combination. The Senna (previously known as Cassia) is a very large genus with about 500 species.  While they can grow up to 30 feet, as this Christmas Senna has done, they can be pruned and trained as smaller trees.  When other trees, like the Crape Myrtles are losing their blooms and leaves, this evergreen is just winding up.  It will bloom from August until the first frost with beautiful yellow orchid-like flowers that are attractive to bees and sulphur butterflies.  However, if left unattended it can be very invasive and grow into parts of a house.   Visit me at my web site at:  www.SallieWilliams.com  to search for available properties in  Baton Rouge, LA  and surrounding areas.  You can also research towns, cities, schools and much more
