Winter interest shrubs are species that provide visual appeal during the winter months through their bark, berries, evergreen foliage, or unique branch structure. Examples include red twig dogwood, winterberry holly, and witch hazel. These shrubs are essential for maintaining the beauty and interest of the garden during the colder months when many other plants are dormant. Winter interest shrubs are often used in mixed borders, foundation plantings, or as standalone specimens where their features can be fully appreciated. When designing with winter interest shrubs, it’s important to consider how they will integrate with the rest of the garden during other seasons and ensure they are planted in locations where their winter features can be enjoyed. Proper care, including pruning and mulching, helps keep these shrubs healthy and attractive year-round.
