Erica × darleyensis 'Mary Helen'
Erica × darleyensis 'Mary Helen' is a compact evergreen heather prized for its colourful foliage and attractive winter flowers. Golden-yellow leaves develop warm orange and bronze tones in colder weather, providing valuable colour and contrast throughout the year.
This variety produces masses of soft pink to pale mauve flowers from late winter into spring, providing an important early source of nectar for bees and other pollinating insects. Its neat, spreading habit makes it ideal for rock gardens, border edges, containers and mass planting.
Hardy, reliable and low maintenance, this heather performs best in full sun in well-drained soil. Light pruning after flowering will help maintain a compact, bushy shape and encourage dense new growth.
