Product Description
HEATHER SCOTCH BRANCHY ANNE Calluna vulgaris 'Branchy Anne'
Description:
These plants are the most varied and interesting of all Heather. The foliage can be silver, yellow, gray and various hues of green. These colors change with cold weather to red, orange, bronze and dark green. Some varieties have beautiful colors of new growth, with shades of pink, yellow, orange and cream. Heather do best in well-drained, acidic soil and require sun for at least half the day for their best color. Plant with Hollies, False Cypress, Candytuft, Creeping Phlox and Wild Thyme for the best effect. (Pollen causes some allergy in certain people.)
