Depends whether you are in northern or Southern Hemisphere.

These days are when the sun passes over the Equator on its way to the other hemisphere's new season.

Vernal is spring, Autumnal is autumn. Because of the conspicuity of the autumn colours in N America, Fall has real meaning there. In my country only two trees are deciduous.
