What are these?



I am biased and curious and I am sure that these are two things which will never change about me. As for the rest of the planet they will continually be biased. Who knows if they are curious. I am convinced most people aren't. Why would they watch TV so much if they were?

Does anyone know what the name of this plant is? It is so fabulous in the fall. Red, orange, a bit of yellowish green, purple...it turns so many shades. It has these brown things that look like seed pods sticking up from it sometimes. I love them. The south metro was plastered with them and they made my day. I am surprised I did not cause a car wreck because I staring at them in all their varied splendor.

shoot. I know, I just can't think of the name. I'll have to ask my mom. She's smart like that. it's a pretty great name tho, something with 'fire' or 'scarlet', quite adequately descriptive.
