I was shopping the other day when I saw this plant. I was delighted, because I had never seen this before, and it looked so unusual. It is Italian Heather! The blooms are like long, thin pockets. One legend says that white heather only grows on the burial grounds of fairies. Long heather branches were used to make brooms. I wonder if this is the broom bush referred to in the following bible verse?
“Then he lay down and
slept beneath the broom bush. But as he was sleeping, an Angel
touched him and told him to get up and eat!”
1 Kings: 19

This is new to me too. It looks like all flowers and hardly any leaves. Beautiful!
No, I have never seen it either, very pretty Ginny. Have a wonderful weekend.

This is the first time I've ever seen this plant and oh my is it pretty.
I love that bright pink.
It is beautiful. At my last home I had a heather garden but not Italian.
Thanks for your kind comment. I come here to answer. I hope you don't mind. I can reply to your comment that comes to my email nor do I have your email address.
Have a wonderfully blessed weekend.
Never seen! It is so beautiful!
Hi Ginny, What a lovely bloom. I do not think I have ever seen any Italian Heather. Remarkable. Have a wonderful weekend. You all are in my prayers.
Wow, they are very pretty! I've never seen them before, either!
Different! I have not seen this and the Bible verse goes well.
Pretty color!! And I learned something....never knew about the legend. Amazing.
Thanks so much for stopping by to visit at I'd Rather B Birdin' this week. It's always appreciated.
Beautiful blooms and a new-to-me plant. Thanks for a Sunday treat!
Very pretty, Ginny.. as always, love the Bible verse.
Well isn't that an unusual plant?!?
