Plant details
A beautiful variety of our native ling with golden leaves that become tinted red in winter. Its lilac-pink flowers cover its low bushy stems for weeks in late summer. This type of heather needs an acid soil and grows best in peaty areas. Trim off the old flower stems in late autumn or spring before new growth begins.
