Holiday Blazeaway Heather (Calluna vulgaris ‘Blazeaway’) delivers bold yellow and orange foliage in warmer months, deepening into red tones once cooler weather arrives. Short spikes of soft purple blooms appear through summer, adding an appealing contrast against the bright leaves. Topping out around 18 to 21 inches, it’s perfectly sized for smaller gardens, borders, or containers. Its deer resistance and rich coloration across the seasons set it apart from ordinary evergreens.

Choosing a living heather as holiday décor reduces plastic waste while allowing you to enjoy a gentle hint of nature’s aroma indoors. In spring, simply move this plant outdoors and continue watching it flourish. You get a refreshing element that stays lively and accentuates any space. Replacing disposable decorations with reusable greenery supports a more responsible approach to festive styling.

Holiday Blazeaway Heather Care

Keep your heather in a bright spot, away from extreme heat or cold, and water just enough to keep the soil lightly moist. From January until the last frost date, avoid letting it dry out completely or become waterlogged. Prune off faded flower spikes to maintain a tidy appearance while it remains indoors.

After the risk of frost passes, let your heather gradually adapt to outdoor conditions by placing it outside for a few hours each day. Once acclimated, plant it in acidic, well-draining soil that receives plenty of sun for the most intense coloration. Leave some space around it for good airflow and to accommodate its spreading growth. Over time, your Blazeaway Heather will reward you with stunning foliage shifts and subtle summer blooms year after year.
