Who doesn’t love a hearty dose of Evergreen ANYTHING come the holiday season? Evergreen plants are usually cold hardy, and low maintenance. Which makes them seriously perfect for winter gardening! Add one (or a few!) of these Evergreen perennials to your yard for lasting color even when it gets cold.
Viburnum
Lush green leaves, and bright red flowers make this variety of evergreen perfect for the holidays. The red flowers usually sprout up around late winter!
Spurge
This evergreen plant is perfect for you if you live in an area of mild winters. This plant blooms in late Summer, but if conditions are correct, it’ll last through December.
Juniper
A snow covered Juniper tree is EXACTLY the image I think of when dreaming of Christmas. Juniper trees are known for their lasting year-round color, and they are extremely cold hardy!
Holly
It isn’t shocking that Holly is featured on this list! As a colorful evergreen that doesn’t shy away from winter chill, this plant will make your yard instantly ready for the holidays.
Rosemary
Who knew that my favorite herb was considered an evergreen? Rosemary needles will stay green through the coldest of winter months.
Firethorn
Firethorn isn’t a true “evergreen” and you may notice that the tips of the leaves turn brown come winter. But that’s no matter! This brightly colored shrub does best when grown on a trellis.
