Heather
£15.00
Growing freely be it high up on the moorlands or down to the sea cliffs, heather is a sturdy wee ever green tree whose delicate flowers bloom twice a year where the delicate purple flower love to dance in the wind. ‘Haeddre’, ‘Heddir’ or ‘Hathar’ as it was called in times gone casts a glorious purple hue as far as the eye can see. Not just a pretty face on the landscape heather is used in medicines, teas, roof thatching, honey production,scents, jewellery, beers and so much more. Plain and simply put, the much loved heather is ‘Braw’ (excellent)
