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

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.

Leonotis Leonurus peach
Raithby, WC
Not often seen for sale – this wild dagga or lions tail plant has peach coloured flowers.
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.
It can grow up to 2m high and 1m wide – slightly smaller than the common, orange version.
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.
