A Heather Collection of 24 named varieties, specially selected to flower during the winter and spring. A mix of green and gold tipped foliage types, white, pink or red flowers (unless otherwise requested). Heathers flower for a very long time and are excellent groundcover plants, reducing weed growth considerably. In winter they are invaluable for providing colour in patio pots, hanging baskets and containers. They also associate well with conifers. Perfectly frost hardy, they will grow in sun or part shade
Although Heathers are well known to be plants which love acid soils, generally the Winter and Spring flowering varieties will tolerate neutral soils but to get them off to a good start dig in plenty of peat or ericaceous compost when planting. Heathers can also be grown in pots of ericaceous compost. All heathers should be cut back hard after flowering to keep them bushy. Give them a feed at the same time
Twenty Four bushy, named, flowering size plants supplied in square, 10cm pots, height approx. 10cm, these are not small plug plants, see photo. At least six different varieties supplied. Fantastic value
