   Are ericas a good plant?

   Are ericas evergreen?

   • Generally known as heaths and heathers, ericas are usually small evergreen shrubs that bloom over a long period, with masses of tiny flowers in shades of purple, mauve, pink, red or white. In gardens they’re traditionally grown as ground cover, low hedging or winter bedding, although a few, known as tree heathers, make more substantial shrubs.

   Can ericas grow in containers?

   • If you find that your soil is too alkaline for ericas, you can still grow them in containers, using ericaceous (acidic) compost. Ericas also like free-draining soil, and once settled in are fairly tolerant of drought. They don't like to sit in damp  or waterlogged soil, as they are prone to rotting. Most ericas need an open, sunny site.
