Green all year???? Very boring!

Winter - Bright white, Blue Blue, Torquoise/Navy (lake), Steel Grey, Light Grey, Sandy Brown

Spring - Greens, Yellows, many pastels in gorgeous flowers, always blue, Lake Michigan is many shades in Spring

Summer - So many shades of green in the forest, greens everywhere, thick green foliage, plus all the flowers

Fall - Awesome as the state forests turn a blaze of yellows, oranges and reds with green pine mixed in, can't beat the fall colors! Gorgeous!!!

Spring -- early on brown (earthiness of newly thawed ground), both grey and blue sky and yellow sun (alternate of spring rain and increasingly strongly sunny days) flowery colours, light green (fresh new vegetation),
Summer -- Dark green vegetation, blue sky, white clouds and bright sunshine (both associated with long days, or with the beach). Grey for the occasional thunderstorms.
Fall -- The colour of changing leaves, grey sky (perception of days getting cloudier and darker), brown (later on after leaves have fallen, bare ground/vegetation)
Winter -- early on black (short days), white snow, clear ice, chilly blue skies (highs) as well as depressing grey skies

Very pretty if you like palm trees! Everyone has their own idea of green and foliage!!!

I have friends in AZ who rave how gorgeous the wild flowers are, how they love it, when I see it from the air all I think of is brown, brown and more brown!!!

In Perth, WA

Summer - definitely blue and yellow/gold. Blue for the sky and the ocean, and yellow for the sand and the sun.

Autumn - Doesn't really have a 'colour' I associate it with here. We do have some northern hemisphere decidious trees so a golden-red/warm colours.

Winter - Grey and green - grey for the skies, and green because here the trees are at their greenest in winter and spring.

Spring - Green and gold, as the vegetation is still very green but it's getting sunnier (not as sunny as Autumn). Many colours of the wildflowers here.
