Andromeda polifolia compacta 2ltr

Introducing the enchanting Andromeda polifolia ‘Compacta’, a charming evergreen shrub that brings elegance and beauty to any garden setting. This delightful variety is renowned for its compact stature, reaching a height of around 1 to 2 feet, making it a perfect choice for smaller gardens, rockeries, or as an eye-catching feature plant in larger landscapes. With its dense foliage of glossy, deep green leaves, ‘Compacta’ offers year-round interest and structure to the garden.

In late spring to early summer, delicate clusters of pinkish-white bell-shaped flowers adorn the shrub, adding a touch of grace and fragrance to the landscape. Plant ‘Compacta’ in a partially shaded to full sun position with acidic, moist, well-drained soil for optimal growth and performance. Early spring or early autumn is the ideal time for planting, allowing the shrub to establish itself before extreme weather conditions set in.

Beyond its ornamental appeal, Andromeda polifolia ‘Compacta’ also serves as a valuable resource for pollinators. Bees, butterflies, and other beneficial insects are attracted to its nectar-rich blooms, making it a vital addition to pollinator-friendly gardens. By incorporating ‘Compacta’ into your outdoor space, you not only enhance its beauty but also contribute to the support and preservation of local pollinator populations, fostering a thriving and biodiverse garden ecosystem.
