    Erica x darleyensis 'Darley Dale'

    Erica x darleyensis includes many hybrids of Erica carnea and Erica erigena, and is one of the easiest of all heathers to grow. It is suitable for almost any soil, needs very little pruning and is useful for smothering weeds. Erica x darleyensis are the ironclads of the heathers. These plants are generally more bushy and are quite a bit taller than the carpeting Erica carnea. 

    'Darley Dale' has pink tips of new growth in spring and bronze foliage in the winter. Buds form in late summer or very early autumn, and can begin flowering as early as late September, often lasting until May. The flowers open pale and deepen as the season progresses. Prune when young when finished flowering in May to create a bushier plant.
