Spring Torch Heather (Calluna vulgaris 'Spring Torch')

Spring Torch Heather is a compact evergreen shrublet that delivers reliable structure and seasonal color in small spaces. It keeps beds looking finished year-round, then adds a second wave of interest with late-season flowers when many landscapes start to slow down. The foliage shifts through warm tip colors in cooler seasons, giving you color even when little else is blooming. Once established in well-drained soil, it is a low-fuss choice for sunny foundations, borders, and rock gardens.

Distinctive Features

This heather forms a dense, mounding habit with fine, needle-like evergreen foliage, and the tips often show vivid red to orange tones in winter into spring before settling greener for summer. From late summer into fall, it produces short spikes of small bell-shaped flowers in pink to lilac-pink shades, adding soft color above the foliage. The compact form makes it easy to repeat for a unified look, and it pairs well with other acid-loving plants. Its best foliage color and flowering come with strong light and sharp drainage.

Growing Conditions

  • Sun: Full sun to part shade, with best color and flowering in full sun.
  • Soil: Well-drained, preferably acidic soil, and avoid heavy, wet clay.
  • Water: Low to medium, water regularly to establish, then water during extended drought.
  • USDA Zones: 4 to 7.
  • Mature Size: About 12 to 18 inches tall and 24 to 30 inches wide.

Ideal Uses

  • Focal Point: Plant in a small drift as a focal point where the spring foliage tips and late-season flowers can carry year-round interest.
  • Foundation Planting: Use as a low evergreen base that keeps structure through winter.
  • Rock Gardens: Tuck into gritty, well-drained pockets where the mound stays tight and clean.
  • Border Edging: Repeat along paths or bed fronts for a crisp, evergreen line with seasonal color shifts.
  • Mass Planting: Group in multiples to create a unified carpet effect with late-season bloom.

Low Maintenance Care

  • Pruning: Lightly shear after flowering to maintain a dense mound and prevent legginess.
  • Watering: Water deeply during prolonged dry spells, especially the first year.
  • Mulching: Mulch lightly with acidic organic material to protect roots and support soil condition.
  • Drainage: Improve drainage with grit or raised planting if soil tends to hold water.
  • Winter Care: Protect from winter wet, since soggy soil can reduce longevity.

Why Choose Spring Torch Heather?

  • Year-Round Structure: Evergreen foliage keeps beds looking finished in every season.
  • Seasonal Foliage Color: Warm-toned tips add extra interest in cooler seasons.
  • Late-Season Bloom: Pink to lilac-pink flowers extend color into late summer and fall.
  • Compact Habit: Mounding growth fits tight spaces and repeats well in designs.
  • Deer Tolerance: Often less appealing to deer than many broadleaf evergreens.

If you want a small evergreen that delivers more than just green, Spring Torch Heather is a strong choice. Give it sun, sharp drainage, and a simple annual shear, and it will keep its compact shape while cycling through seasonal interest. It looks best repeated so the mounds read as a deliberate design layer. In the right site, it becomes an easy, reliable backbone plant with a late-season bonus.

Durable and Rugged
Color: Black
I've had it for a few weeks now. It was a replacement I bought after buying several vinyl type covers. This one is a good gauge of plastic and rubber. The rubber seems pretty strong and it protects the iPad well on the corners and back. The back is mostly covered except for the Apple logo in the center. In addition to protecting the corners and also protects the camera lens as the rubber after insulation is a little bit higher than the lens so when you put this down, it's not going to scratch the lens. It has a pen slot, which I like and plenty of room to grip the device if I'm carrying it from place a place or when I'm using it, I can grip the edge and not touch the screen. One of the things I would've liked included is a screen protector, but nothing covers the screen. I also miss the folio type cover because the screen will gather dust now. But, Apple screens are fairly durable so I'm not too worried about breaking it. It was easy to install. It came in as it came in a couple of pieces that you just pressed together. All the controls are obvious as they are under the rubber, but they look like keys. One more thing I might bring up is the charging port. It's easy to get to even though it's a little deep. On my iPad the touch sensor is on the on off button and it is a little harder to do than if I didn't have any case on it, but that is to be expected. It also has an easel that unfolds from the back if you want to sit it up, but I don't use it for watching anything since I have a real TV set. So far I like it and I'm glad I bought this as I don't think it's going to wear out as quickly from me handling it as the others did. The value was good as long as it lasts.
