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, Roses, Shrubs & Perennials
Banksia rose (pink)
Raithby, WC
Banksia Rose (Rosa banksiae) is also known as The Lady Banks Rose.
It’s a thornless climbing rose, it flowers in Spring with miniature double white or yellow flowers appearing in clusters. The foliage is small and fern like. Banksia rose tolerates a wide range of soil types, but prefers well-drained moist soil which is rich with organic matter. It requires a sunny position if it is to flower well. Pruning is carried out immediately after flowering has finished at the end of Spring or early Summer. Don’t prune in winter!
Great for covering a fence or a bare wall, it will grow quickly to cover the area. It has almost thornless stems, making them easy to handle and prune and ideal for areas where pets or children will be playing. Banksia Roses are largely disease resistant and are low maintenance. They also work well as a ground cover rose.History: It’s part of the Rosaceae family and originated in China. The rose was named after the wife of a famous botanist Sir Joseph Banks.
