As fall begins, use fall plants and themes in creating great curb appeal. Remove spent summer annuals and replace them with chrysanthemums, kale, pansies and marigolds. Mums, pansies and marigolds are available in oranges and yellow colors; yellow is often referred to as the number one home selling color. You can always use pumpkins and squashes for a fun accent.
