The Story
Mauve-pink flowered heather, with striking new growth in shades of cream, orange, and red, maturing to dark green later in summer when the flower spikes cover the plant, lasting into fall. As with other heathers, the dense foliage adds bronze tones in colder weather. To 1-2ft tall and wide, this mounding evergreen makes a good groundcover in sun and rich, well-drained soil with at least occasional moisture once established. Can be sheared in spring to maintain shape. Frost hardy to -20F, USDA zone 5.
