A large chunk of hillside was barren clay when I moved in so over a few years I transplanted about a half dozen Heather plants and spaced them four of five feet apart. They have quickly spread and covered the large clay scar and keep trying to colonize the yard. So in the summer after the grass itself has been subdued I next do the heather patrol and ruthlessly pull every small smidgen of heather moving in rank into and across the drive. But the bloom is gorgeous and the feel of Heather on the Hill makes it all worth while.
