Hardy Heather—Erica and Calluna 
Mr. E. H. Wilson, writing in the Arnold Arboretum Bulletin un- 
der date of July 30th, 1927, says: ‘‘Heather is much more hardy than 
is generally supposed and can be grown successfully over the 
greater part of New England and other regions enjoying a similar 
climate, always supposing that lime is absent from the soil. It 
loves full exposure to the sun and winds and must not be coddled. 
Clipping low in the spring results in a wealth of cheery, bright 
green, erect shoots which as August approaches are transformed 
into spikes of white, pink and red-purple blossoms. It is an excell- 
ent ground cover. The secret of its successful culture is its full 
exposure and an annual spring clipping. In districts where a de- 
cent snowfall prevails no winter protection is necessary, but where 
the snowfall is sparse a few pine boughs should be thrown across 
the plants to break the direct rays of the sun in late February and 
March. Heather should be planted much more abundantly in New 
England, not only for its beauty, but as a ground-cover and mulch 
among Azaleas and other choice surface-rooting shrubs.”
