HEATHS &HEATHERS

摘要

These evergreens are always gorgeous, and they only need a little help from you.Joften hear folks say that they hate heaths (Erica spp. and cvs., Zones 5-8) and heathers (Calluna vulgaris and cvs., Zones 5-8], their earlier blooming cousins. The most common complaints are the woody, leggy shape they develop (mostly after years of neglect) and how they outgrow the space they've been provided rather quickly. The same people who complain about heaths and heathers admit they have no knowledge of how to care for them. But while these plants do need certain conditions and annual care, they are not divas.
