Gaultheria is the perfect evergreen plant for challenging areas in the garden. These low-growing shrubs thrive in shady corners, and their dense, nearly impenetrable growth makes them excellent at combating weeds, acting as a natural ground cover. Gaultheria procumbens features tough, leathery, rounded leaves that turn a brilliant red by October, providing stunning autumn colour. The small, bell-shaped flowers are followed by vibrant red berries, offering essential food for birds and wildlife. This low-maintenance, fast-growing plant is an ideal choice for shady gardens and is also well-suited to sloping ground. Alternatively, plant them in patio containers and place one on either side of your front door during the holiday season for a festive and attractive display—making it a wonderful Christmas gift idea. Height: 15cm (6"). Spread: 100cm (39"). For autumn and winter colour in a shady spot in the garden, Gaultheria procumbens is an excellent choice. Summer's small pink bell-shaped flowers are followed in October by scarlet berries which can last well into January before providing essential winter food for birds. Plant Gaultheria procumbens into garden borders in any moist, well drained garden soil, in full shade or part shade. Alternatively grow Gaultheria plants in patio containers using a soil based compost such as John Innes No.3. Feed and water plants regularly until fully established.

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. We are only liable for the cost of the goods as quoted on the website plus the cost of delivery if the goods are faulty.
