Flowering Period
This lovely Erica x darleyensis cultivar has pale pink blooms that appear from late winter to early spring. Heather 'Darley Dale' is a particularly useful variety because it can be grown in almost any soil. This neat little evergreen forms excellent ground cover due to its compact bushy habit. Perfect for growing in raised beds, borders, containers, and rockeries, where its nectar-rich blooms will attract pollinating insects. Height: 30cm (12"). Spread: 55cm (22"). Erica (Heather) Plant - Darley Dale Unlike some heathers, Erica darleyensis cultivars are lime tolerant and will grow equally well in almost any garden soil. Grow Erica darleyensis in well-drained soil in full sun. When growing in containers, use a good quality soil-based potting mix.

Live Plants

Dobies strives to ensure that all its plants are delivered to you in the perfect condition for planting. While the majority of our nursery plants cope well with slight delays in intransit, sadly, the time it takes to deliver to certain locations in the UK means that we can't guarantee this for some of our smaller plug products and tender bedding and vegetable lines, which do not respond well to the extra journey time. So regretfully while we offer the majority of our live plant offering nationwide, we are unable to ship plugs, begging plants and tender vegetable plants to the following areas: HS, IV41-IV49, IV51, IV55-56, KW15-KW17, PA34, PA41-48, PA60-PA78, PA80, PH40-PH44, TR21-TR24, ZE1-ZE3.

Non Standard Deliveries

Unfortunately like many companies in our industry we are currently only able to supply orders to UK based customers, excluding those in Northern Ireland. We are committed to finding a way that we can resume or normal services again as soon as possible. Please accept our apologies for any inconvience caused.

Prices include VAT where applicable.

We reserve the right to contact you and advise an additional charge where necessary and are happy to quote for carriage of specific products to more remote areas. Some items may not be available to all areas.

We reserve the right to revise any carriage charges in the event of carrier price increase or other unforeseen circumstances. We will always advise of the carriage charge before payment is taken.

All Dobies products should reach you in perfect condition, just as they left us. If you are dissatisfied in any way with their condition on arrival, please let us know within 14 days.
