There is something special about the plants that augur spring in the weary winter, their determined shoots eagerly breaking through cold hard ground with budding promises in their posies and welcome pollen for hungry butterflies and bees.
A colorful, early-season bloomer, Mediterranean White heath produces masses of clean white flowers borne on spiky branches of attractive evergreen foliage, offering color and delicate texture to the winter garden.
This is a low-growing shrub with a moderate rate of growth and a lush mounding habit. Over time, it will form a dense ground cover that will spread and gracefully tumble over the edge of a retaining wall or planter. It's a bird-friendly, easy-care plant, perfect for erosion control or for planting in a rock or woodland garden, anywhere it can develop naturally.
