Stephanandra Tanakae is changing color right now. This is a little shrub that can root where the stems touch the ground.

Green Weeps
The forest is looking bare, but a lone Weeping Willow stands out. This fast growing hybrid tree keeps its leaves on later than most other deciduous trees.
The Usual Cypress
The Bald Cypress is a deciduous conifer like the Dawn Redwood and Japanese Larch that I grow. Just like the other two species, this conifer has dependable fall color.
Golden Ginkgoes
Some years the fall color on Ginkgos is lackluster, this is not one of those years. These Ginkgo trees are quite the focal point right now.
Coppertina Ninebark
Coppertina Ninebark has dark, copper leaves in summer. Now that it is fall, some of the leaves are turning red.
Rose Arborvitae
While the Arborvitae is staying a consistent green, the native Rose behind it is stunning in color. Both of these plants add different elements for wildlife.
Peachy Needles
The Dawn Redwood has started to change from its summer green. The peachy-orange fall color is different than another deciduous conifer, the Larch.
Larch Glory
Larches are conifers that lose their needles in fall. But before that, they turn to a glorious yellow.
Sugar Maple Represents Fall
Sugar Maples are known to be good for fall color. That is why there is one in the yard.
Corky Burning Bush
Corky Burning Bush has a lot of corky growth, moreso than the species. The cultivar name Monstrosus is fitting.
