Shrub Calluna Vulgaris, Type F, 1.5LP, 20-30CM

Calluna vulgaris, or Heather, has evergreen foliage and masses of summer flowers that provide year-round interest. It's a common sight in the wild on moorlands and lowland heaths, where it grows so abundantly that the land appears to turn purple in the late summer. The nectar-rich blooms, which provide an important source of food for bees, also fill the air with a scent reminiscent of honey.
Numerous heather cultivars with colorful flowers in various shades of red, pink, purple, and white, as well as some with orange or yellow foliage, have been bred specifically for gardens. Additionally, some cultivars referred to as "bud bloomers" provide an especially long season of interest because the flower buds remain colorful for several weeks even though they never fully open.
