It pairs well with heather in a larger pot.Spruce - a perfect choice when you want something truly hardy in the winter. This small spruce is also nice to decorate with everything from light strings to holly when the season calls for it.

This is how you take the best care of winter plants

When you have decided to create a garden for lower temperatures, it is important to take care of the plants properly from the beginning. You should water sparingly, since there is less need for water when it is cool.

In addition to the above-mentioned plants, there are many more that can withstand cold nights, frost, and snow. Lily of the Valley comes in different colors and thrives best in partial shade to shade. The larger varieties also do well in an insulated pot outdoors during the winter months.Eastern arborvitae is an evergreen tree that has no trouble surviving the winter. It thrives in a large, insulated pot with plenty of soil. As a bonus, it naturally forms a spherical shape.Clematis is a climbing plant that many people plant late in the spring against a trellis.
