Also known as Ling. Leaves are small, scale-like and opposite. Mostly summer blooming, flowers form along the stems and range in color from shades of mauve and pink to white. Some of the flowers are double, and are good for drying. The great diversity in ever-changing foliage color and habit among cultivars is intriguing, and you may find yourself turning a lawn area or sunny slope into a heather garden using Calluna, Erica, and companion plants! Requires acid soil and very good drainage.
