Do heathers flower all winter?

Winter heathers thrive in sun and, although they tolerate a little shade, it can make their stems stretch too much, rendering them untidy. Some varieties start to flower as early as November, while others come into bloom as late as April – January to March is usually their peak.

Is winter heather a perennial?

Native to South Africa, Erica heather is a short shrub that produces cute flowers grouped in umbels that bloom from fall to winter. This perennial usually covers surfaces well which can be interesting, and its bushy appearance and abundant flowers will certainly make for a beautiful addition to your garden.

Do heathers flower all year?

Heathers are the ideal plants for low maintenance gardens. They will give you colour all year round with Winter / Spring and Summer/ Autumn flowering varieties as well as many different foliage colours e.g., red, orange, yellow and silver.

Do heather plants spread?

Dig holes twice as wide as each plant’s root ball to encourage roots to spread. After removing each heather plant from its pot, gently tease out the roots and spread them across the planting hole. Heathers like to be planted deeply with the lower foliage resting on the soil surface.

How do you take care of winter heather?

Heathers need an acidic, preferably moist (but not soggy) soil. They are tolerant of very poor, rocky soil, but the acidity is important. If you have a neutral or alkaline soil, work in acidic soil amendments such as damp peat moss. Avoid the use of sedge peat or spent mushroom compost as these can be too alkaline.

How do you maintain winter heather?

Heaths and Heathers require moist, but well drained soils. They do not like to sit in standing water as they are very shallow rooted. As such, they are also very susceptible to drying out in the warm summer season. Water them frequently when it is hot.
