This is the view from my back door. The shrub with the yellowing leaves is Cornus ‘Winter Flame.’ The winter twigs are red shading to yellow at the tips like a candle flame. The orange-leaved shrub is Rhododendron vaseyi ‘White Find.’ The rounded evergreen in center is Pinus strobus ‘Nana.’ Photo/Illustration: Courtesy of Betsy Thompson
