Rouge's question about perennials yet to bloom, generated this question.
What remains to bring fall color to your garden? All categories welcome: vines, shrubs, trees, twigs, bark, berries?
Perennial foliage counts, too.
Here are mine. I'm sure I forgot some.

Shrubs
Rose of Sharon
Hydrangeas:
Twist and Shout (one is sending up its first bloooms after being hit hard this winter)
Nantucket Blues has buds
Limelight
Little Lime
Pee Wee
Tardiva
Alice
Species
two or three others whose tags are gone.
Annabell
I'm sure there are a couple of more

foliage
Itea "Henry's Garnet"
several hydrangeas, esp. Lady in Red
sorbaria
sumac: low grow and "brilliance"
Franklinia
4 different Japanese maples
I don't remember if my viburnum leaves change color

Berries
Ilex verticulata red, red, red
Viburnums Winterthur and Brandywine: blues, pink so pretty
I need me some jacks in pulpits
wood peony
