Planting heather

Hi all, a question about planting heather, is it too late to plant them Sunday, I know ideally they're supposed to plant in the spring but will they be OK to plant them now, thanks all

Yep not sure where you got that impression OP, heathers can never dry out so Autumn/Winter is the best time really.
Ensure the pots are well soaked before planting and keep them watered.

Brilliant, I mentioned it in passing to someone and they said never to plant heather this time of year so I was wondering was I too late. That’s great, thanks
