I love Fall and the change of color in the trees and bushes. I have a bush in my backyard that is an unassuming bush for 3/4 of the year, but in the Fall it becomes a STAR! Last Saturday it was pretty nondescript and then we had a couple of cold nights and this is what it looks like now--Gorgeous, gorgeous, ORANGE!
I've never noticed that it had berries until I took this closeup. I'm going to look closer tomorrow. I don't know what kind of bush it is, but I always look forward to its beautiful ORANGE display in the Fall.Here's to the color ORANGE,

I'd be interested in knowing what kind of bush that is since I'm only about 60 miles north of Denver. Broncos have a bye week.
I think it is a Yellow Barberry. We have them here in Missouri. The branches look like that and they have berries that are red right now. I have a couple in my yard. Are the leaves a yellow green before they turn?
Hi Paula and Cheryl, I think you are right Cheryl--it is some sort of Barberry Bush. The leaves are more of a dark green than a yellow green. I googled Barberry Bush and got lots of pictures. I may be planting another one. Thanks for the info Cheryl.
