Dogwood Looks Great In Winter. |
- Cornus (Dogwoods) have now mostly lost all their leaves, leaving incredible coloured stems in shades of deep red/black, yellows and oranges that will last all winter, and for years to come!
Holly In The Snow. |
- Ilex (Holly) will now be coming into berry (or forming drupes if you want too get technical) which provides a vital source of food for wildlife during the harsh winter months but also creates that christmas card image of deep red berries against the spiked green foliage....now all we need is some snow to complete that picture!
- Viburnum x bodnantense 'Dawn' A stunning variety of viburnum with clusters of pink and white, elegantly fragranced flowers, which are borne on the bear stems throughout Autumn and Winter.
- Hamamelis x intermedia (Witch Hazel) These stunning shrubs, or small trees have brilliantly twisted growth which can clearly be seen in wirer, however there main feature is the beautiful coloured flowers with a divine scent that are borne on these bear stems throughout winter and into spring. They truly are stunning!
