At The Greenhouse Nursery in Logan, UT, Compact Burning Bush is the kind of shrub we like for bold fall color that can make a simple planting feel finished. Plant it in full sun to partial shade. Its water needs stay simple after it has had time to root in. It can be used in walkway corners when you want the planting to feel more complete.
