Description

Heathers are low perennial ground cover plants.

They have the double advantage of having evergreen foliage and offering a very long flowering period in winter, when most other plants are dormant. We have selected Erica Carnea for you.

They are one of the few heather varieties that grow in all types of soil, even non-acidic ones.
