WHOLESALE LIST FOR FLORISTS, LANDSCAPERS AND NURSERYMEN 
ERICA OR CALLUNA 
HARDY HEATHER 
We have grown Ericas for four years and 
are continuing- a large propagation. In 
the months of July and August practical¬ 
ly all varieties are in full flower and 
they are really magnificent, so different 
than most plants. They are an ever¬ 
green, at the same time producing flow¬ 
ers the full length of the stems and are 
very ornamental. 
We are convinced that there is nothing 
that can be used to the same advantage 
as the Ericas or Callunas for bordering a 
planting of Azaleas or Rhododendrons. 
They also make a nice showing in rock 
gardens, thriving in acid soil and for 
shady locations will do well in neutral 
soil. Taking into consideration their value 
for these types of plantings they are 
worth a great deal.
