Erica abietina ssp aurantiaca Seeds - Indigenous Shrub Seeds - Struike Inheems aan Suid Afrika

Erica, the heaths or heathers, is a genus of approximately 860 species of flowering plants in the family Ericaceae. The English common names "heath" and "heather" are shared by some closely related genera of similar appearance. Most of the species are small shrubs from 20-150cm high, though some are taller. All are evergreen, with minute needle-like leaves 2-15 mm long. Flowers are usually outward or downward facing and are borne in mass. The plants are grown as landscape or garden plants for their floral effect. At least 660 of the species are endemic to South Africa, and these are often called the Cape heaths, forming the largest genus in the fynbos. The remaining species are native to other parts of Africa, Madagascar, the Mediterranean region, and Europe.

Erica abietina ssp aurantiaca grows to 150cm in height. During summer this robust Erica bears orange to dark red tubular flowers. It is very well suited to being potted and will make a stunning display on any outdoor verandah.
