These are popular mainly because they never lose their "'leaves" providing a winter contrast with snow. But evergreens are relative- ly expensive, compared to the cost of flowering-shrubs. And by substituting flowering shrubs, home gardeners can landscape their grounds with shrubbery that provides texture, contrast, "flowers, fruits and fall leaf colour, says Pat Tucker, head of the University of Guelph's grounds department. Flowering shrubs mature quickly and they can easily be kept in shape by pruning. Indeed, they may require little corrective pruning during the early years and.may be rejuvenated as they age. Flowering shrubs are available in sizes one metre to four metres (three feet to twelve feet) in height and may be selected to fit any situation in- cluding sunny or shady areas and well-drained to heavy soils. 'Since flowering shrubs lose their leaves, choose those with winter interest. The high bush cranberry shrub, for example, bears bright red berries during the winter and provides birds with a food source and protection from predators. Other shrubs exhibit strong architectural form which may be emphasized by judicious pruning, Tucker says. For example, the hardy downy service-berry bush or the bloodgood Japanese maple, grown only in..warmer areas of the province, possess this trait. Plant shrubs in the bare root stage in early spring or late fall when the bush is dormant. Transplant early in well-prepared soil, water well during drought periods and control insect and disease problems. Try such: shrubs as honeysuckle, snowberries, mock oranggs, forsythias, hydrangeas, viburnums and spireas.
