Autumn for neem

As summer is nearing, neem tree begins to shed its leaves for the last few weeks, in Sivakasi town. The leaves colour has been changed from green to yellow and neem leaves falling heavily in the roadsides and drains. In a month, the tree sheds all the leaves and will give skeleton look and seen with bare branches and the branch system is clearly visible. The new leaves will be grown within a month and gives new look to the tree and gives more shadow than other trees, in summer days. The shedding of neem leaves is one of the signs of the begining of the summer season, in Sivakasi.
