Daboecia x scotica ‘William Buchanan’   

Premiering some of the biggest flowers amongst the Heathers and Heaths and attractive rosy seed pods perfect for dried arrangements, this vigorous low shrub was first spotted in the namesakes Glasgow garden. Diminutive, dark green, oval-shaped leaves with silvery undersides serve as a lustrous foil for the elongated spiky racemes of large, lantern-shaped crimson-purple blossoms.

‘William Buchanan’ is a close-knit long blooming Heath that appreciates well drained acid soils, a trim after flowering and a natural setting. He’s at home on a hillside, around the rockery or oceanfront. Zone 6/7.

Blooms June–October.

Size: 16" high x 2' wide; hardy to zone 7.
