Best plants for color in my part of the world are Virginia Creeper, sumac and Red Oak for reds. Elms for yellow and, for autumn golds, oranges, the Blackjack oaks and an occasional Post Oak. The latter two oaks are variable and unreliable. Sometimes they skip color and go straight to brown :smily:. I've considered trying to grow sumacs in the yard just to get the autumn color.
