Fall color and long-lasting blooms

Fall color on our "baby" the Shantung maple--mostly yellow but a few hints of red.

Encore azaleas in the planters on my porch--nobody told them it is almost December!

Fall color on chinese fringe flower:
Fall color on crepe myrtle:
Fall color on flameleaf euonymus. These are deciduous and have interesting bare branches in winter. The dirt doctor is very complimentary of this plant, but my jury's out on this plant. The ones in full sun seem to suffer in the extreme heat and barely limp into fall. The ones in part shade look very healthy but have no fall color.

Knockout roses--still blooming the week of Thanksgiving!
