Calluna vulgaris 'Ruby Sprinkles' Japanese Gardens

Calluna vulgaris 'Ruby Sprinkles' Japanese GardensUnusual bud bloomer heather that has spikes of ruby red buds in August September. Since it is a 'bud bloomer', it will be displaying the red 'sprinkles' longer than most other heathers. A great contrast plant against dark green foliage. Grows to 15" tall and about the same wide. Hardy to zone 5. Photo courtesy of David Wilson.
