In the winter months, nature comes to rest and the countdown to spring is on. Plants retreat to gain energy to do their best again in the spring. Are you impatiently looking forward to spring? Not necessary, there are many winter bloomers that will brighten up your winter garden and winter terrace with scent and color. Discover them here!
Snowball
A real winter winner is the snowball. From autumn to spring, the shrub is full of fragrant flower clusters. This topper gives you two colors for the price of one. Beautiful softly scented white flowers grow from the red buds. A spectacle all year round because this plant is hardy. A must for your winter terrace!
Skimmia
Skimmia is a real patio topper for winter and early spring. The shrub has attractive foliage, fragrant flowers and brightly colored berries. The flower buds are already strikingly present in the autumn and they embellish the plant during the winter months. Afterwards, in the early spring months, these will bloom wonderfully fragrant with white, pink or red flowers.
Hellebore
This plant is also known as Christmas rose and is a real winter flowering plant. Although they look rather fragile, these flowers are very strong. The Helleborus protects itself against frost. When it freezes, the flowers go limp, but they don’t freeze. Once temperatures creep back above zero, this plant will recover and shine again like never before. A winter miracle!
Paper bush
At the end of the year, the paper bush forms white racemes that open into beautiful yellow flowers in January. This slow-growing shrub should not be missing in the winter garden. It grows broadly spherical, to a height of about 1.5 meters.
Snowdrop
Snowdrop is a very popular garden plant due to its time of flowering. It signals the start of the new year and blooms in January. In the past, snowdrops were sometimes referred to as ‘early mornings’. That refers to the early flowering period in the year. For everyone who is looking forward to spring, they already give a first sparkle of spring bloom. The leaves of this plant are narrow and grassy and emerge before winter begins.
Mahogany
Mahonia starts flowering in October and you can already enjoy the fragrant, bright yellow flowers that appear in December. The plant longs for a spot in the sun. The flowers are in long varieties and smell like no other when in bloom. Highly recommended for this period!
Winter jasmine
Naked in the winter? No problem for the naked flowering winter jasmine. This jasmine sparkles from December to April and in February it has countless cheerful yellow flowers on the still bare, leafless branches. Plant it so that you can see it well from the house. You don’t want to miss the sight of a full bush with butter-yellow flowers. Winter jasmine is a nice flower gift for your friends or family.
Witch hazel
Nice to see such a shrub that does not have a single leaf on it, but whose bare branches are often covered with flowers birthday in December. They bloom regardless of cold or snow with yellow, orange and red flowers on the bare branches and spread a powerful yet wonderfully sweet perfume throughout the garden. The petals curl up in fog, rain or cold, but can withstand frost. As soon as the sun appears they will unfold again
Winter violets
Winter violets bloom all winter long, provided it is not freezing. When it freezes, they let themselves hang limp until the temperature rises above zero again. Then the cups will come back up on their own. Winter violets are also very suitable for a window box on the balcony.
