Evergreen Shrubs To Bring Color To Your Southern Yard All Year Long

There is no place nicer than a Southern garden in springtime. Summer and fall aren't too shabby, either, but come winter most gardens are a little past their prime looking brown, wilted, and maybe a little sad. That doesn't have to be the case, though. Gardeners who plan ahead and plant evergreens can have gorgeous, verdant gardens year-round.

While picking a shrub, refer to the USDA's Plant Hardiness Zone Map that can help determine which plants will thrive in your corner of the South. Here are some of our favorite evergreen shrubs to make your garden look good all year round.
