Why are the fall colors in America more intense than in most europeen countries, i.e. Germany?

Question

I live in Germany but used to visit the US frequently. The fall colors in the US always impressed me. I mean, obviously we have fall colors in Germany too. But they don’t compare, they seem more faded.

Edit: Talking about the trees! Didn’t specify, sorry!

Answer 1

In Finland we have amazing fall colors on our trees so this is not North America thing only. [Here’s a finnish website which has some beautiful pictures of Finland in autumn](https://www.karjalainen.fi/uutiset/uutis-alueet/maakunta/item/117658)
