after planting a bed with lavender and heather the other day somebody
told me you shouldnt do that because they like opposite types of soil.
Is this the case? Anybody know thanks?



Think of Heather's natural environment: Peaty (northern) hillsides spring to
mind. Scottish Heather?

Think of Lavender's natural environment: Hot dry stony ground.

Does that mean they won't grow together at all? 'cos I've planted them
now
