Description

Gaultheria 'Pink Pearl' , also known as prickly heath 'Pink Pearl', is a compact evergreen shrub, growing up to 1m in height and spread. Its dense, sharp-tipped dark green foliage offers a striking backdrop throughout the seasons. In late spring to early summer, clusters of small white flowers bloom, followed by ornamental pink berries in autumn, adding a delightful touch of colour. This low-maintenance shrub thrives in moist but well-drained soils and flourishes in both full sun and partial shade, making it a versatile choice for year-round interest in the garden.

AKA: prickly heath 'Pink Pearl', Pernettya mucronata 'Pink Pearl'

Planting Steps

Aftercare Advice

Trees and shrubs require a good watering regime for a couple of years whilst they establish. Water well and regularly through spring and summer, increasing in hot or dry weather. If planting in autumn, you may only need to water a little. It is advisable to keep the area free of competing weeds and grass during this period.
