Winter blooms to break up any landscape
Trees and shrubs that bloom in the winter add instant curb appeal and break up a white (or brown and snowless) winter landscape. Try adding a few of these winter plants to crank up the visual impact of your house during the winter months:
Dogwood
Aside from some color in late summer, Dogwood brings white or yellow flowers in late winter and early spring.
Heath
Heath bush boasts white, pink and red flowers in the winter.
Witch Hazel
Witch Hazel provides red or yellow flowers in winter along with beautiful autumn foliage depending on the variety.
Winterberry
You might know it as Holly but the dark green leaves and bright red berries in the winter are a great addition to your landscape long after the Holidays!
Winter Jasmine
Bare green stems and yellow flowers bloom on Winter Jasmine November through March.
Winter Honeysuckle
Fragrant, although not too bright, Honeysuckle flowers bloom in the winter months.
Heavenly Bamboo
Heavenly Bamboo boasts brilliant red foliage all winter.
Blueberry Bush
A New England classic, enjoy Blueberries in the late summer and look forward to red foliage in the fall and bright red branches all winter.
