Ericaceous compost is acidic and is beneficial for plants that like an acid soil. For example camellias, rhododendrons, erica’s etc.
Hydrangeas also benefit, making their colours more intense and also making certain flowers more blue in colour. The pH of an acidic soil is typically between 4.5 and 6.

Viburnum Tinus Compacta
Raithby, WC
Viburnum tinus ‘Compacta’ – A Compact Evergreen Beauty
Viburnum tinus ‘Compacta’ is a dense, evergreen shrub valued for its neat growth habit, glossy foliage, and clusters of delicate flowers that brighten the garden during the cooler months. This compact cultivar of Viburnum tinus is widely appreciated for its versatility in hedges, borders, and containers, making it an excellent choice for both formal and informal gardens.
Viburnum tinus ‘Compacta’ forms a rounded, bushy shrub with smaller, tighter growth than the standard species. Its dark green, leathery leaves are oval-shaped and glossy, creating an attractive backdrop for the plant’s winter blooms. From late autumn through winter and into early spring, tight clusters of pink buds open into small, star-like white flowers that provide subtle colour and charm when few other plants are flowering.
After flowering, the plant produces small metallic-blue berries that add further ornamental interest and attract birds to the garden.
For sale in South Africa.
