Planning Now For More Color In Winter
Planning Now For More Color In Winter
March is a great month for advance planning, but when we think about what we’ll plant this spring and summer, don’t forget to access how your landscape looks now. I don’t know about you, but the view out some of my windows in the winter and early spring is of tree trunks, oak leaves, and random wild vines. If your yard also borders some wild or wooded spaces, chances are what you’re seeing is gray and brown, gray and brown. Accented, perhaps, by more brown.
So when you make your planting plans for the coming year, start by making a list of some of the plants you can place next to or in front of those oak-filled, wild areas to give you color and pleasing textures all winter as well as the rest of the year. Here are just a few suggestions to consider.
When you’re making your shopping list for landscape plants this spring, note how much sun your area gets and how much space you have for the shrubs to grow in. Then bring these details into the garden center and we’ll help you find just the right evergreens for the edge of your woodlands. You’ll never have to stare at gray and brown for five months again!
