White Maple Leaves White Maple Leaves


These maple leaves were small and white having no chlorophyl or green color. The photo was taken in the spring of 1992 approximately 6 1/2 miles north-northwest of TMI. Many tiny leaves grew this way, others dropped off the trees or curled up and withered. Some leaves at this location and also west of the nuclear plant had leaves turn black, like charcoal and were desiccated.
