Erica ‘Mediterranean White’ brings a bright, elegant touch to the winter landscape, covering itself in dense clusters of pure white, bell-shaped flowers from late fall through early spring. Unlike many heathers, this hardy, evergreen variety thrives in poor soils, withstands drought once established, and shrugs off deer. Its fine-textured, deep green foliage creates a low, spreading mound, perfect for rock gardens, borders, and mass plantings. Cold-tolerant and low-maintenance, ‘Mediterranean White’ keeps the garden lively even in the dullest months.
