And what about flowers?Cornell Cooperative extension horticulturist Amy Ivy  sorts through some of the priorities in her weekly conversation with Martha Foley.(Hints: &quot;maybe&quot; on the tomatoes, &quot;no&quot; on the winters squash&apos;s prospects.)

<link>http://www.northcountrypublicradio.org/news/story/18522/20111004/fall-leaves-reaching-their-peak-this-week-in-the-adirondacks</link>
<description><![CDATA[ (Oct 4, 2011) Attention leaf-peepers:  peak season is nearly here in the Adirondacks.The official New York state foliage report says trees around Lake Placid are changing colors quickly.  They’re expected to be a peak by the weekend, with near complete color change, and a mix of golds, yellows, reds, mixed in with the evergreens.  Old Forge, and the Mount Arab/ Tupper Lake area are all expecting 95-percent color change this week and a mix of red, russet, orange and gold leaves. Nina Bussuk is a professor in the Cornell Horticulture Department.   While we all learn in school about chlorophyll making leaves green.  She says that pigment breaks down in the fall.  And if we’re lucky a red pigment takes its place.
