Good Morning! I'm trying to find plants/shrubs that bloom & stay
green throughout the Winter months for my Cape Cod garden. I'm tired
of looking out my window to brown during these cold months. Heather
is one great option as they have varieties that bloom Nov.-March...any
other ideas? I believe Cape Cod is zone 7???

chimonanthus praecox - fragrant yellow flowers through winter. Also known as
wintersweet

I planted one this year, not v impressive yet but I'm hoping for a good
display in coming years
