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.

Plants, Shrubs & Perennials
Leonotis Leonurus orange
Raithby, WC
The bush is comprised of mostly erect branched stems topped with multiple ball-shaped inflorescences which bear the nectar-rich flowers – sunbirds love them. They also attract honey bees and other beneficial insects.
The Bush Bronze butterfly (Cacyreus lingeus Fam: Lycenidae) uses this plant as one of its larval food plants.
The generic name Leonotis is derived from the Greek words leon meaning lion and –otis meaning ear. This refers to the pubescent upper lip of each flower that resembles a lion’s ear, hence the vernacular name. The specific epithet leonurus means lion-coloured, a reference to the flower colour of some forms.

Plants
Lychnis coronaria (pink)
Raithby, WC
Lychnis Coronaria (Rose Campion) is an evergrey perennial that deserves a spot in the landscape.
Very attractive with its erect, white-grey flowering stalks covered with a profusion of glowing magenta, pale pink or white trumpet-shaped flowers, it enjoys a long season of interest, is easy to grow, trouble free and not too fussy about soils or exposure. In short, the perfect perennial!
Grown as much for its decorative and abundant 1 inch flowers in bloom from late spring to late summer as for its basal rosette of woolly, silver-gray, evergreen leaves which provides interest in the winter garden, it thrives in full sun or part shade and enjoys average, medium, well-drained soils. While moist soils are preferred, it will tolerate poor, dry soils once settled. Good drainage is essential!
Grows up to 45-60 cm tall and 45cm wide.
