| The forest ground vegetation is mostly dominated by ericaceous dwarf shrubs. |
| If, for instance, you have alkaline soil you can dig a large hole, fill it with ericaceous compost and grow acid-loving plants such as azalea and foxgloves. |
| Like other ericaceous plants, blueberries must be grown in acid soils so if azaleas and camellias do well in your garden, these will too. |
| These droughty soils also have low fertility and typically support black spruce and heath vegetation or ericaceous shrubs. |
| Two years ago it was with great difficulty removed from its pot, its roots cut back and fresh ericaceous compost added. |
| They arrived very well packed and I've potted them up into large tubs of ericaceous compost since they won't like our local soil. |
