Autumn foliage trees refer to ornamental trees whose leaves change from green to other colors after autumn or first frost, which can make the whole crown look bright and beautiful. Autumn-colored trees are mostly deciduous trees, and there are some evergreen trees. Although the leaves will change color, they mostly appear in winter. In addition, most deciduous trees will change color after autumn frost, but the duration is short, the color is not good, and they lack ornamental value, so these two species do not belong to autumn-colored leafy trees.

Therefore, Acer truncatum belongs to autumn leaves, but Photinia rubra is not. Photinia rubra is an evergreen plant with red leaves, which belongs to color-leafed tree species, but not to autumn-colored tree species.
