Anyone who goes walking on the moors will recognise Erica straightaway. A beautiful, almost endless carpet of colourful ground-covering plants with flowers that give colour in the cold months. And who wouldn’t like that in their garden or on their patio or balcony in January? When it has finished flowering, Erica is also an attractive addition to the garden all year round with just a bit of care. Evergreen, ground-covering and easy!
