Autumn is a beautiful time of year, with its vibrant leaves and crisp air. And one of the best things about autumn is the bright shrubs that add a touch of color to the landscape.
In this video, we'll share our top picks for the brightest shrubs of autumn, as well as tips on how to care for them.
Here are a few of our favorites:

Tips for caring for the brightest shrubs of autumn:
- Plant them in the right location. Most autumn shrubs prefer full sun to partial shade.
- Water them regularly. Even though the weather is cooler in the fall, your plants still need water. Be sure to water them deeply once a week, or more often if the weather is dry.
- Fertilize them in the spring. A balanced fertilizer will help your plants to produce more leaves and flowers.
- Mulch around them. Mulching helps to retain moisture in the soil and protect the roots from the cold.
- Prune them regularly. Pruning helps to control the size and shape of your shrubs, and it also removes any dead or diseased branches.
