VIBURNUM BURKWOODI 
HEATHER 
Heathers are among the most desirable 
of the low growing shrubs for Pacific 
Northwest Gardens. A proper selection 
will give you blooms almost the year 
around. The double forms of Scotch 
Heather bloom in the summer and are 
chioce for cut flowers. The Irish Bell 
Heather also blooms in summer; both 
purple and white kinds are available. 
The various forms of Erica vagans, the 
Cornish Heath, produce their brilliant 
flowers in late summer and should not 
be overlooked. For winter and early 
spring blooms we recommend Erica car- 
nea in one or more of the pink forms, 
planted in combination with Springwood 
White. We usually have a number of the 
better kinds on hand.
