Burning Bushes

Question

Why don’t our burning bushes get red all over? Not really as red as I see on others. I was wondering if it is because there is less sun where they are planted?

Answer 1

I think you are right on the mark. They need full sun to be able to get their brilliant red color. It also helps if the temperatures are a little cooler as well.
