Winterberry
Grown as a small tree or a shrub, winterberry doesn’t get much attention during the growing season. Come winter, though, this wallflower demands to be seen when it bursts to life with bright red berries. Winterberry grows best in full sun and tolerates wet soil in spring and drought in summer.
Why we love it: The impressive collection of fruit lasts for months if the songbirds don’t gobble it up first. Plant winterberry in groups for big impact.

Dappled Willow
Dappled willow, also known as variegated willow, produces amazing leaves that are variegated when they are young. Whatever you choose to call it, it will surely become a favorite for you in your landscape.
You’ll be delighted when the vibrant, distinctive leaves unfurl from the buds in spring with a mottled mix of cream, green and pink colors. As the new growth matures, some of the pink colorations will subside, leaving a creamy white and grayish green variegated leaf.
This colorful shrub is really popular with homeowners looking for easy-care solutions.
Why we love it: This plant also displays good winter interest with coral and red stems that contrasts with the landscape.
