    Erica arborea var. alpina f. aureifolia 'Albert's Gold'

    Erica arborea 'Albert’s Gold' is a striking evergreen shrub admired for its luminous golden foliage and upright growth. The fine, needle-like leaves hold their bright golden-yellow colour throughout the year, bringing warmth and contrast to borders, heather gardens, or containers. In spring, masses of small white, bell-shaped flowers appear, adding soft texture and subtle fragrance.

    Compact, hardy, and easy to grow, ‘Albert’s Gold’ thrives in full sun and acidic, well-drained soil. Its vibrant foliage colour is strongest in open, sunny positions, where it provides year-round brightness and structure to the garden.

    • Golden-yellow evergreen foliage
    • Adds year-round colour and texture
    • Clusters of small white flowers in spring
    • Ideal for borders, containers, or winter interest
    • Hardy and low-maintenance
