8 plants with cool-season berries
These shrubs and small trees bejewel the landscape from fall into winter
Jewels of the fall garden
Plant one of these shurbs or small trees for a burst of color in your fall-to-winter garden. Some work well as espaliers,
turning a blank fence or wall into a beautiful focal point. Their berry-laden branches are fun to pick for indoor arrangements.
And wild birds love them.
Fall is the best time to shop. Put them in the ground now or pop their nursery cans into larger containers for instant holiday
displays for porch or deck.
