Ken has some great ideas to brighten up the garden in November and December. He says make sure you have a bit of bright colour from flowering shrubs and plants in your garden. Two particularly good ones to include are mahonia and callicarpa.
Mahonias can be planted in spring or autumn and are a great staple of many gardens. Callicarpa is best planted during the autumn.

The variety of mahonia shown in this video is ‘Charity’ and can be purchased online. Callicarpa is available here.
