Most gardeners can agree that spring and summer bring us gorgeous blooms. But, fall has a lot going on, too! Fall is when hydrangea blooms age to a beautiful shade of pink, when grasses are at their best, and so many shrubs change foliage color.
Now is the perfect time to glance around your garden to see where you can add more fall color interest. Check out the whole collection of fall color here.
Graceful Grasses® 'Fireworks' Fountain Grass has upright variegated pink-red foliage that is the perfect thriller for combinations.
Superbells® Double Orange Calibrachoa displays double orange blooms, perfect as a filler in combinations and the landscape.
Illusion® Garnet Lace Sweet Potato Vine has red-brown trailing foliage making it the perfect spiller in any fall combination.
Shrubs
Double Play® Candy Corn® Spirea is a fall color dream! New growth emerges bright candy apple red, as it matures, it turns pineapple yellow, and the new growth continues to emerge bright orange all season with purple flowers in spring.
Gatsby Moon® Oakleaf Hydrangea has large white panicle blooms that turn green as they age and beautiful wine-colored foliage in fall.
Winecraft Black® Smokebush has rich purple foliage in spring, but in summer's heat turns near-black before bursting into reds and oranges in the fall.
Don't let another fall pass you by without adding some color to this often overlooked season. And, for more information on fall planting, check out this post.
