What does an evergreen plant look like? It will delight you for many months

Winterflower is a shrub that delights with its appearance. It is covered with large, green leaves that are fantastically decorative almost all year round. When winters are warm, it sometimes becomes an evergreen plant. However, it usually sheds its leaves in late autumn and in winter it is covered with a dozen beautiful, bell-shaped yellow flowers. They not only look beautiful, but also fantastic. It is a sweet, intense aroma that we can feel from a distance. The winterflower usually reaches a height of 2 to 4 m and branches beautifully.

When does winterflower bloom? Growing the plant requires care

The winter flower blooms in winter, when all other plants are still in hibernation. The flowers appear already in February, covering the branches with yellow buds. If you want to plant winterflower in your garden, do it at the turn of February and March. You can also do it in autumn, but then you need to protect it well against frost by covering it with agrotextile or straw. The older the seedling, the more frost-resistant it becomes. However, during the first few seasons it is worth protecting the winterflower so that it does not go to waste. This can be one capricious plant. The winter flower needs a position where it will be protected from the wind, and it should be placed in full sun. It likes constantly moist soil, but does not require frequent fertilization. The winterflower is also resistant to many diseases and pests.
