Winter Heather

The Winter Heaths are the closest things we have to "winter everblooming" flowers. Winter Heath will not grow in warmer climates, while in much colder areas they will delay bloom until spring. But for Puget Sound they are champion winter bloomers. And great color in the garden. White, purple or pink.
