Tree Heath

Overview

Erica arborea, commonly known as Tree Heath, is a graceful evergreen shrub reaching up to 20 feet in height. Its needle-like leaves and profuse white-to-pink bell-shaped flowers flourish in USDA zones 7-9, preferring well-drained acidic soil. Blooming occurs from late winter through early spring, offering attractive nectar sources for pollinators. Its upright form and fine texture make it ideal for accents in Mediterranean or rock gardens.
