    I am sorry, I have no pictures, but I am dying to know what the plant is. It looks just like a Heather, but it blooms in Late December. I saw it in a garden in Mannheim, Germany. It was such a sweet little bush. Does anybody have any ideas?

    Probably Erica carnea (Alpine Heath), as that flowers in winter.

    Yes! That's it! That's it! That's it! Thank you! I want one so badly, but I didn't know what it was and the people on other message boards couldn't figure it out either. Thank you so much!
