Do you get hungry for bright colors in February? I do. In a 30-minute walk this week, I found three examples. The fourth example, winterberry, was showing its brilliant hues on a snowy day in January.

How about the exquisite gold, rust and green of this globe arborvitae (Thuja occidentalis)? In the background, the peeling stems of native physocarpus. |
I believe these are broomsedge--rusty red against this golf course green. |

I love how this cranberry (Vaccinum macrocarpon) not only keeps it leaves in winter but develops a color true to its name. |
And then there's the ever-reliable winter color of winterberry (Ilex verticillata). (Photo: Robert Lorenz Photography) |
