Fall color

Acer rubrum 'Franksred', planted in February

Fall is my favorite season, the world feels settled and calm. Fall is also the only time that I love yellow, orange and even red. The rest of the year, I am drawn to blue, purple and green. But the other colors shine in the fall, especially when we are lucky enough to have sunny weather. I don't have enough fall color in my yard, but I'm working on it.

Blueberries
Unknown Japanese maple
Dogwood, Cornus kousa 'Rosy Teacups', planted in the spring
Acer rubrum 'Franksred', planted in February
Witchhazel 'Diane', planted in February
Asian pear
Grapes
Grape leaves
Our roses, neighbor's maple in the background
Late blooming coneflower
I like the dead heads on the coneflowers too
