I know a lot of you are familiar with heathers but I don't see them often. I love seeing them in the pictures that members provide.

I love this photo due to purple is my favorite colour. I haven't seen this before. Where could I purchase one? Thank you for sharing.

Do keep it moist, don't let it dry out and feed with Ericae fertilizer and use peat or special plating mix for Ericaeous plats (acid soil) - after blooming - in spring - give it a good crew hair cut to keep the plant tidy.
