We usually take a trip to the mountains in the Autumn. It&#8217;s an opportunity to exhale, relax, and talk. We have found that communication is the key to a healthy relationship. Daily work and other activities can take up so much of your time that you barely have a chance look at your significant other and say &#8220;Hello, how are you?&#8221; When we go to the mountains, we take lots of walks. It gives us a chance to clear our heads, and it helps us regain perspective. Sometimes you can get so caught up in the daily grind, that you forget what&#8217;s really important in life. During one of our brisk walks, a bright red shrub caught our attention.<\/p>\n<figure id=\"attachment_1986\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-1986\" style=\"width: 300px\" class=\"wp-caption alignleft\"><a href=\"http:\/\/itsgardeningtime.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/12\/itsgardeningtime.com34-e1417906880220.png\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-medium wp-image-1986\" src=\"http:\/\/itsgardeningtime.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/12\/itsgardeningtime.com34-e1417906880220-300x222.png\" alt=\"Red Berries Shrub at Massanutten Resort\" width=\"300\" height=\"222\" srcset=\"https:\/\/itsgardeningtime.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/12\/itsgardeningtime.com34-e1417906880220-300x222.png 300w, https:\/\/itsgardeningtime.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/12\/itsgardeningtime.com34-e1417906880220.png 762w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 300px) 100vw, 300px\" \/><\/a><figcaption id=\"caption-attachment-1986\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">Winterberry Shrubs at Massanutten Resort<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<p><iframe loading=\"lazy\" style=\"border: none;\" src=\"\/\/rcm-na.amazon-adsystem.com\/e\/cm?o=1&amp;p=12&amp;l=ur1&amp;category=hmkitchen2016&amp;banner=0JQDCXKFS0R89JR2SCG2&amp;f=ifr&amp;lc=pf4&amp;linkID=9831dce50d89bccd517cdada7383ebb3&amp;t=itsgati-20&amp;tracking_id=itsgati-20\" width=\"300\" height=\"250\" frameborder=\"0\" marginwidth=\"0\" scrolling=\"no\"><\/iframe><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>We had no idea about the name of the shrub.
