Growing and Maintenance Tips:


Calluna need a well-drained, evenly moist, acidic soil, rich in organic matter. They grow best in full to partial sun. A light annual shearing, soon after flowering, will keep plants from becoming straggly, and allow the plant enough time to reset its flower buds for the following year.
