I like holly. It makes a nice bird sanctuary. We usually have nests within our bushes. And of course we have knock-out roses which provide year-round color. But I long for something tropical looking that blooms year round. I guess it is just too cool here, everything tropical needs to be covered when the temperatures dip.
