Landscape Brighteners In lieu of summer’s blazing color, many gardeners brace themselves for a winter of gray and brown, if not flat-out white. No matter if your winter is just a little chilly or bone-freezing cold, try these tips to brighten your landscape:

1. Install trees and shrubs that have beautiful exfoliating bark, vibrant berries, or bright evergreen foliage.
2. Install winter annuals or evergreens in containers near doors or windows, so you can enjoy them from indoors.
