What looks lovely in your garden now?

[Brontosaurus]

My garden is looking very sparse right now. It's the same every winter because I haven't really got many evergreens or plants/shrubs with winter interest. Partly because they're expensive to buy.

I'm hoping to change that for next year to perk things up a bit.

What's looking nice for you at the moment?

For all the hellebore gardeners - I've avoided them as toxic to pets/kids. My 2 yo loves 'helping in the garden' so didn't want to risk anything...

Am I being over-cautious? I love them SO much and am so jealous of them in other gardens! Keen to know people's thoughts on risk?

Hellebores, a few primroses, several thousand snowdrops.

Some bright red and some yellowish cornus stems.

Quite a bit of simple topiary which stands out more now than in the summer.

WoolyMammoth55 I grow hellebores, loads of them. We don't have pets or small children. Furry trespassers will have to take their chance but I haven't heard off any problems from the neighbours.
