So inspired by your aronia picture, when I got home from work I walked around and took a few pictures of some really striking fall color. Unfortunately, you'll have to take my word for it. I don't know why the reds/oranges don't jump out of the pictures. It's too bad, because these guys are really showing off today.
#1 is fothergilla major - I purposely post a rather distant shot, since the glowing orange really lights up the area. But from the picture, looks like a dud.
#2 is fothergilla gardenia.
#3 is stewartia pseudocamellia
#4 is acer shirasawarum Palmatifolium
#5 is an evergreen azalea.
