Planting guide

Plant in autumn or spring in acidic, humus-rich soil. Choose a sheltered position away from strong winds and improve the soil with ericaceous compost before planting.

Care tips

Water regularly during dry spells, especially in the first year. Mulch annually with bark or leaf mould and feed with an ericaceous fertiliser after flowering.

Winter care

Fully hardy and generally low maintenance in winter. Apply a mulch of leaf mould or bark to protect roots and maintain soil acidity.
