There are many dogwood varieties that have beautiful red foliage in the fall. Some are more red, while others are more burgundy and purple. Flowering dogwood, Kousa dogwood, and common dogwood are some of the more well-known varieties that offer red foliage in the fall, but pagoda dogwood and gray dogwood are also good choices. It is important, since growing zones vary for varieties, to make sure that is acceptable to plant a specific variety in your area. Another dogwood, redtwig, is also worth checking out as it has vivid red stems in winter and adds a wonderful pop of color at a time when we could all use some.
