==Cultivars==
There are many named [[cultivar]]s, selected for variation in flower colour and for different foliage colour and growing habits.<ref>{{cite web |title=RHS - Find a plant |url=https://www.rhs.org.uk/plants/search-results?form-mode=true&query=Calluna%20vulgaris&isAgm=true&pageSize=20&startFrom=20 |website=rhs.org.uk |publisher=The Royal Horticultural Society |access-date=8 March 2022}}</ref>

Different cultivars have flower colours ranging from white, through pink and a wide range of purples, and including reds. The flowering season with different cultivars extends from late July to November in the northern hemisphere. The flowers may turn brown but still remain on the plants over winter, and this can lead to interesting decorative effects. Cultivars with ornamental foliage are usually selected for reddish and golden leaf colour. A few forms can be silvery grey. Many of the ornamental foliage forms change colour with the onset of winter weather, usually increasing in intensity of colour. Some forms are grown for distinctive young spring foliage.<ref>{{cite web |title=Calluna Subcategories |url=https://www.heatherworld.org/category/heathers/calluna-heathers/ |website=heatherworld.org |publisher=Heather World |access-date=8 March 2022}}</ref>
