Notes

'Gold Haze' heather (Calluna vulgaris 'Gold Haze') is a shrub for borders, rock gardens, and pollinator gardens. It is hardy to USDA zone 5, or down to -20°F (-29°C). This plant likes full or part sun and average to moist, sandy or loamy soil. White flowers open in early to late summer and again in early to late autumn, and bees visit them. Deer tend to browse other plants first. The evergreen foliage gives you color all year.

Pairs well with Japanese maple, Greig's tulip, and Blue Angel hosta.
