Spring Torch Heather
Calluna Vulgaris 'Spring Torch'
Spring Torch Heather delivers year-round ornamental interest through its dynamic seasonal color transitions. Emerging spring foliage blazes in shades of yellow, coral, and flame-red before maturing to deep forest green in summer. Delicate pale purple flowers cascade along the branches, followed by winter's golden-bronze and purple-tinged palette. This evergreen mounding shrub reaches approximately 2 feet tall by 3 feet wide, making it an excellent groundcover choice for zones 4–7. Its extended seasonal appeal and textural contrast complement taller, architectural companion plantings beautifully.
