Gaultheria trichophylla

Native of the Himalaya. Low spreading shrub of shiny bristly foliage. Flowers white, followed by handsome mauve to pale lavender berries in quantity. Rarely available. It prefers an acid leafy soil which doesn't get too dry in summer. Part sun or shade. Non- poisonous. Tiny leaves and bristly hairy stems. Solitary white tp pinkish flowers when you are lucky.  The lovely blue fruits have been likened to thrushes’ eggs, but in many gardens they are produced sparsely or not at all.
