Hi,

I’m looking for an accent plant for the front of a light colored house in Canadian growing zone 5b. It must be wind and ice damage tolerant. Because of the light colored house I was thinking something with red / purple or yellow foliage. House is also two story so maybe a medium to large tree. Any recommendations?

Maybe ask on the Canadian gardening forum, I could suggest something but prob won't stand up to your winters.
