Description

Heather (Calluna vulgaris 'Carnival') is a vibrant, color-shifting evergreen that brings a dynamic display to any garden. From late spring through summer, its foliage glows a sunny yellow, providing a striking backdrop for masses of mauve to lavender blooms that extend from late June to August. As temperatures drop in fall, 'Carnival' transitions through shades of orange, deepening to a bold scarlet red in winter, creating a stunning seasonal spectacle.

Ideal for moist, well-drained soils with morning sun and afternoon shade, 'Carnival' thrives in protected spots, delivering year-round color and interest.
