From February to March, the pure white flowers of Heather ‘White Perfection’ make a lovely contrast with its bright evergreen foliage. Being an Erica x darleyensis cultivar, this neat bushy shrub will tolerate almost any well drained soil. The nectar rich flowers provide a useful food supply for bees at a time of the year when few other plants are in bloom. This lovely, spreading RHS AGM variety is particularly effective for creating weed suppressing ground cover. Height: 45cm (18″). Spread: 60cm (24″). February and March can be very flat months in the garden but a display of heathers will nicely fill the gap in the season until the spring flowers, bulbs and shrubs start to come in. Erica x darleyensis ‘White Perfection’ is clothed with pristine white flowers that pollinating insects will love at a time of the year when nectar is hard to find. An RHS AGM award winner, ‘White Perfection’ is an evergreen with bright green foliage and is a neat bushy shrub that will act as good ground cover to keep weeds at bay. Height: 45cm (18″). Spread: 60cm (24″). Unlike some heathers, Erica darleyensis cultivars are lime tolerant and will grow equally well in almost any garden soil. Grow Erica darleyensis in well-drained soil in full sun. When growing in containers, use a good quality soil-based potting mix.
