Burning Bush Shrubs
The Burning Bush shrub is a popular option among gardeners across most of the U.S. because of its easy to grow nature and stunning Fall color.

Burning Bush shrubs provide property owners with a deep Fall color that can add drama to any exterior space.

One of the benefits of the Burning Bush shrub is its ability to grow in the majority of the U.S. The hardy planting zones that support the growth of the Burning Bush shrub are from four to eight, with only the hottest areas of the nation out of reach. The Burning Bush shrub will grow well in almost every area apart from the southern reaches of the Southwest, the Deep South, and Southern Florida.
Growing the Burning Bush Shrub
The stunning Fall color of the leaves of the Burning Bush Shrub is the main attraction, but the ease of growth of the plat makes it a good option. Burning Bush shrubs are drought tolerant in most areas and are pest-resistant, making them an excellent choice for those looking for a low-maintenance option.

The shrub grows best in full sun conditions, meaning its location receives around six hours of unbroken sunlight each day. If a full sun location is not available, the Burning Bush will grow in particle sun with a less vibrant Fall show.
Once planted, the Burning Bush shrub is drought tolerant, but it does require watering during its first few months of life. After becoming established, watering can be reduced to around one-inch of water per week.

The display of the Burning Bush shrub is one of the reasons the plant has become so popular across the U.S. The display begins in May to June with the arrival of tiny flowers that become red berries a few weeks later. When these red berries fall from the shrub, they can take root and new plants appear. The switch to crimson leaves begins in the Fall and adds a stunning burst of color to any exterior space.
