Gaultheria Seeds

The Gaultheria genus, commonly known as Wintergreen or Checkerberry, is a versatile and ornamental member of the Ericaceae family. These low-growing shrubs are celebrated for their glossy, evergreen foliage, delicate bell-shaped flowers, and bright red or purple berries, which provide year-round interest. Gaultheria is perfect for adding texture and seasonal colour to woodland gardens, borders, and containers.

Native to temperate and subtropical regions worldwide, Gaultheria thrives in acidic, well-drained soils and prefers partially shaded locations. These hardy plants are drought-tolerant once established and are ideal for low-maintenance landscapes. Popular species such as Gaultheria procumbens, or American Wintergreen, are particularly admired for their aromatic leaves and ornamental berries.

The Gaultheria genus combines beauty, adaptability, and ecological value, making it a perfect choice for gardeners seeking low-maintenance, evergreen plants with multi-season appeal.
