Fall color -Reply


Japanese anemones, for fall flowers.  Hosta
foliage turning gold.  Everything else I can
think of are all shrubs.  Will I be chastised on
this list for mentioning them?!

Aronia (chokecherry) has brilliant red foliage
with red berries (takes dry shade).

Viburnum opulus has irridescent red berries in
the fall, always gets comments in my yard. 
Golden berried 'Xanthocarpum' is very nice.

Beautyberry (calocarpa) incredible metallic
purple berries.  

Sasanqua camellias in pink, red, white. 

Leycesteria formosa, incredible, drooping
panicles of red/purple berries.  

All the hybrid musk roses are at their best in
the fall (for flowers) and some set hips as well.

If I was at home I'd check past garden journals. 
Anyone else able to do that?

Hello: Can anyone suggest perennials for fall
color? I have some a few of
the most obvious; Asters, "Mums", Rudbeckia,
Sedum Autumn Joy. My garden is
sunny and well drained; I live in USDA zone 8
near Seattle, Wa. Thank you,
Carolyn
