PLANTS THAT SURVIVE WINTER outside

Here we’ll share our top picks for plants that survive winter outside. There’s a mix of ones that provide greenery and others that’ll bloom in early spring. These options will provide a green outdoor winter space.

Red Twig Dogwood

It turns red in fall and grows big white berries in winter. As such, it provides some well-needed color in colder months.

Lily of the Valley

Lily of the valley won’t give you much in winter, but it’ll bloom in early spring. If you have a mild season, you might get some winter flowers too.

Camellia

Camellias aren’t super hardy plants, but will do well in a sheltered space. They flower in winter, giving you a nice burst of color, and the glossy leaves are a deep green.

Winterberries are hardy plants that’ll survive almost anywhere. Birds love the berries, and cuttings look great in floral arrangements.
