Platycodon fall color

 

Trees are not the only plants whose leaves get colorful in the fall. Every year my Platycodon (Balloon flower) turns a striking lemon yellow. The peonies also turn yellow. The dwarf plumbago turns a rich red. Some Amsonias turn a glowing yellow but mine don’t. Hardy geraniums often turn a confetti of color, red, orange and yellow among the green. The benefit of all of these, is of course the seasonality which includes beautiful flowers.
