Erica darleyensis is one of them.<br \/>\nThis hardy winter-flowering heather brings colour to the garden from autumn well into spring.<br \/>\nWhile many other plants are dormant, Erica darleyensis adds a cheerful splash of colour right through to April!<\/p>\n<p>But there&#8217;s more to this plant than just its appearance.<br \/>\nWhen the first bumblebee queens emerge in February, there is often little food available in gardens.<br \/>\nA flowering Erica can provide a valuable source of nectar. It&#8217;s precisely this early flowering that makes the plant so interesting for biodiversity.<\/p>\n<p>A lovely reminder that a garden doesn&#8217;t just come to life in summer, but can have something to offer throughout the year.<br \/>\nAt Van Woudenberg Tuinplanten, we love giving these strong, sometimes underrated plants the attention they deserve.<br \/>\nErica darleyensis is available in our familiar P17 pot size and in P23 bowls. A versatile plant that not only brings colour but also contributes to nature.<\/p>\n<p><em>Sometimes, the greatest value lies in the plants you might otherwise overlook.<\/em><\/p>\n<p data-ccp-props=\"{&quot;335551550&quot;:1,&quot;335551620&quot;:1,&quot;335559683&quot;:0,&quot;335559685&quot;:0,&quot;335559731&quot;:0,&quot;335559737&quot;:0,&quot;335562764&quot;:2,&quot;335562765&quot;:1,&quot;335562766&quot;:4,&quot;335562767&quot;:0,&quot;335562768&quot;:4,&quot;335562769&quot;:0}\">\u200b<\/p>\n","protected":false},"featured_media":2178,"template":"","class_list":["post-2177","news","type-news","status-publish","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","entry"],"acf":[],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/vwtuinplanten.nl\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/news\/2177","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/vwtuinplanten.nl\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/news"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/vwtuinplanten.nl\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/news"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/vwtuinplanten.nl\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/2178"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/vwtuinplanten.nl\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=2177"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
