Creating a garden that shines in every season isn’t just about choosing plants that bloom at different times. It’s about building a landscape with layers. Bark, berries, changing foliage and evergreen textures that come before, during and after the growing season’s burst of colorful flowers.
The bonus of a four-season yard is that the trees and shrubs, in particular, provide food and shelter for the birds, beneficial insects and other creatures that share this world with us. Evergreens provide much-needed shelter, while dried cones and seed heads offer winter sustenance.
