Bring year-round colour and interest to your garden with our Pernettya Dark Pink 1L. Also known as Gaultheria, this evergreen shrub is prized for its glossy foliage and vibrant dark pink berries, which persist from autumn into winter, creating striking displays in borders, containers, and patio arrangements. Its compact, bushy habit makes it a versatile addition to gardens of all sizes, while its low-maintenance nature ensures easy care.

Height & Spread: Pernettya Dark Pink typically grows to 25–30cm in height with a spread of 25–30cm. Its compact, mounding habit makes it perfect for edging, rockeries, small borders, or adding seasonal colour to containers.

Flowering Time: Small, bell-shaped flowers appear in spring, followed by dark pink berries in autumn and winter. The berries provide extended visual interest and attract birds, enhancing your garden’s wildlife value.

Best Position: Plant in full sun to partial shade in well-drained, acidic soil. Pernettya thrives in borders, raised beds, or containers, making it ideal for patios and small garden spaces.

When to Feed: Apply an ericaceous fertiliser once or twice during the growing season to promote healthy foliage and berry production. Mulching helps retain moisture and maintain soil acidity.

Hardy, colourful, and low-maintenance, the Pernettya Dark Pink 1L is perfect for adding year-round charm and wildlife-friendly interest to your garden.
