   Should Erica be pruned 'down' in the garden?

   • If winter heather plants, including Erica, are not pruned regularly, they will produce flowers on long woody stems. This will result in an unattractive shape for the plants and, over time, they will lose their nice compact ground-covering characteristics. It’s therefore also a good idea to keep Erica 'down' in the garden by pruning.
