Winter Garden Colors


Strawberry leaves, chervil, radicchio, and poppies
The foliage of Sunshine blueberries is beautiful in winter.
Just a few Calendula flowers still blooming
Red twig dogwood branches in winter
Camellia flower buds waiting patiently for their time to bloom
A pretty purple-red Marner Lagerrot cabbage plumping up

December in the Garden


A few more berries on the evergreen huckleberry bushes
Snap pea shoots and blossoms still growing

The beautiful changing colors of a Sunshine Blueberry bush
Marner Lagerrot Red Cabbage
A bed of self-seeded chervil
The sage is still lovely.
A long bed of autumn spinach and freshly-planted yellow, orange, and white Fosteriana tulip bulbs. The pavers are for decoration and to keep the squirrels from digging up the bulbs. I'll move them before the tulips shoot up in spring.

Cylindra beets

Heather and Sunshine Blueberries

The strawberries are showing new growth, already getting ready for spring.

The last of the hollyhocks
