Line 13: Line 23:  
This is a low evergreen, heath- like shrub forming large tufts, with needle-shaped small leaves and small rosy pink nodding flowers in short terminal racemes, produced in great profusion. Perfectly hardy North and requiring the same treatment as hardy ericas; a pretty little plant for rockeries. Propagation is usually by seeds which are freely produced in cultivation and treated like-those of erica; also by cuttings.
