Schneekuppe Erica Heather

Erica ‘Schneekuppe’ brings a crisp, refreshing glow to the winter garden, bursting into bloom from late winter through early spring with pure white, bell-shaped flowers that blanket its compact, evergreen foliage. This cold-hardy, low-growing winter heath thrives in rock gardens, borders, and mass plantings, providing reliable, long-lasting color when little else is in bloom. Drought-tolerant, deer-resistant, and virtually maintenance-free, ‘Schneekuppe’ is the perfect solution for adding winter brightness to your landscape with minimal effort.

  • Light: Thrives in full sun to partial shade; best flowering in bright light.
  • Soil: Prefers well-draining, acidic to neutral soil; tolerates sandy and rocky conditions.
  • Watering: Water regularly when young; once established, drought-tolerant but benefits from occasional deep watering.
  • Maintenance: Lightly trim after flowering to maintain shape—avoid cutting into old wood.
  • Hardiness: Hardy to USDA zones 5-9—cold-resistant and perfect for winter gardens.
  • Additional Tips: Ideal for rock gardens, borders, slopes, and mass plantings. Evergreen, deer-resistant, and blooms through the coldest months.
