Gaultheria procumbens
Gaultheria procumbens is a low-growing evergreen shrub prized for its glossy green foliage and masses of bright red berries. Its creeping, spreading habit creates an attractive carpet of colour and texture throughout the year.
Small white to pale pink flowers appear during summer and are followed by decorative red berries from autumn through winter. The combination of evergreen foliage and long-lasting berries makes it particularly valuable for seasonal displays during the colder months.
Compact and easy to grow, Gaultheria procumbens is perfect for autumn and winter containers, baskets, pots and acidic border planting. It performs best in moist but well-drained, acidic soil in partial shade or gentle sun.
