Amazing Heaths & Heathers for your Garden

September 8, 2010

All through the year heaths and heather are blooming in our display gardens. And even when not in bloom, their foliage can take on dramatic shades of red, gold or lime green. These wonderful plants are relatively drought tolerant, are easy to grow and add interest all year long.

'Estrella Gold'

A profusion of white flowers turn this amazing plant from a wonderful lime green to pure white in late winter every year. This larger growing heath has lime green foliage with bright yellow new growth. Broad compact habit. Found in Sierra da Estrela, Coimbra, Portugal in 1972 by R. Zwijnenburg and introduced first in the Netherlands. This is a very worthwhile plant and winner of the Award of Garden Merit trophy.
