Heaths & Heathers

will heath kill my bulbs?

flwrgrdnmom
18 years ago

I have a bulb bed (with many different bulbs) and would like to plant creeping heath as a ground cover, mainly for the winter color. I've seen some say that it kills other plants around it though, so I thought it best to ask before I plant any.

Thanks!
