My garden is full of reds and oranges and yellows right now, just not from changing leaves. (Had to throw in a little purple, too.)
Crossvine (Bignonia capreolata "Tangerine Beauty")
Butterfly weed (Asclepias tuberosa)
Orange bird of paradise (Strelitzia reginae)
Blackberry lily (Iris domestica, formerly Belamcanda chinensis)
Cigar plant (Cuphea ignea)
Thryallis (Galphimia glauca)
Cape honeysuckle (Tecoma capensis)
Firebush (Hamelia patens)
Beautyberry (Callicarpa americana)
Chaste tree (Vitex agnus-castus "Shoal Creek")

    Douglas, thanks again for your reply. there are a few small garden centers near me. I'll go and check them out. I admit I go to the 'box' stores because their prices are good. they are selling all the veggies now and I have to force myself not to buy. hands in pockets. :) val
