Menziesia

Menziesia - Dwarf shrubs resembling Heaths, and, like them, admirably suited for large rock gardens or wherever there is a moist peat soil. They are all of neat growth, and bear pretty flowers.

Menziesia ferruginea Sm. rusty menziesia

Menziesia pilosa Juss. ex Pers. - minniebush

Menziesia Coerulea - A tiny alpine shrub, native of Scotch mountains and of northern European mountains. A pretty bush for the rock garden or for choice beds of dwarf plants, 4 to 6 inches high, with pinkish-lilac flowers, flowering rather late in summer and in autumn. Europe.

Menziesia Empetriformis - A dwarf Heath-like bush, seldom more than 6 inches high, with clusters of rosy-purple bells in summer. Though not common in gardens, it is one of the brightest gems for the choice rock garden, and thrives in exposed positions in moist sandy peat soil, and should be associated with the dwarfest rock plants. N. America.
