Investigators are seeking fresh information to crack the case of the serial killer who murdered three Vancouver women 15 years ago and dumped their bodies in the Mission-Agassiz area.

Police say he may have hunted, fished or camped in the area, or worked there in logging or forestry operations or in corrections. “It’s quite possible he killed them elsewhere and then dropped them there,” said RCMP Cpl.

might twig someone’s mind and they might say, ‘We knew so-and-so at that time, he was involved in logging in that area’ or ‘he was an avid hiker in that area.’” Red vehicle paint chips and oil recovered from the sites may be linked to a 4x4 police think would have been needed to access the sites, and may have been scratched or damaged underneath. Yellow rubber flecks were also recovered from the bodies and may have come from rain gear or some type of material used to wrap them.

‘It’s still sinking in’
Campbell’s premiership comes to end Kerrie-Ann SCHOENIT and Tom FLETCHER Abbotsford News
Local Liberal MLAs were shocked and saddened by Premier Gordon Campbell’s resignation on Wednesday morning. They said party members had no idea about their leader’s decision. “It’s still sinking in,” said Abbotsford-West MLA Michael de Jong following the announcement. “If you have worked for someone for as many years as I have, it can’t help but be a sad occasion when the premier makes the decision to step down. “Having said that, he does so as a leader who in my view has given more and done more for the province than just about any single premier I can think of.” Even though the Liberals’ popularity has deteriorated over the past few months, de Jong pointed out that Campbell’s legacy can be seen almost

Abbotsford-Mission MLA Randy Hawes added he too felt Campbell’s vision and leadership over the past 10 years has made the province a better place. He acknowledged the public’s anger over issues such as the harmonized sales tax, but said Campbell’s record is
one to take personal pride in. “I think that (his resignation) is a testament to the man himself where he has consistently put the good of the province and the people of British Columbia, and the government and party ahead of himself,” he said. The local MLAs agreed it is too early to begin speculating about future leadership. The government’s responsibility now is to provide stability in the province and continue
focusing on a strong economy, said Liberal caucus whip John van Dongen, who is also MLA for Abbotsford-South. Campbell made the announcement in Vancouver yesterday, saying he will make way for a “smooth and orderly transition” to the next leader and premier. He acknowledged the fallout from the introduction of the HST in July. Campbell said recent efforts to cut taxes, create jobs and improve the education system have not been accepted, and he wants the public to give fair consideration to a referendum set for next fall on the HST. Hamish Telford, head of the political science department at the University of the Fraser Valley, said Campbell’s resignation was long overdue. He felt the premier’s television address last week failed to provide enough reassurance about his leadership skills to both his party and the public. “My sense for some time now has been that the citizens of B.C. were not interested in explanations of the HST and they were not interested in half-hearted apologies,” Telford said. “What they wanted was someone’s head and the head they wanted was the premier’s.”
Dunach parents want three years Vikki HOPES Abbotsford News
Parents and students of Dunach Elementary pleaded with the Abbotsford board of education Monday night to give them three years to “grow” the school and avoid its closure. A public forum at Eugene Reimer Middle School drew more than 100 people and about 40 speakers opposed to the proposal to permanently close Dunach in June 2011. Trustees make a decision on the matter at the board of education’s monthly meeting on Nov. 15. Several speakers – some of whom broke down in tears – requested the three-year timeline to increase student numbers. The board has identified declining enrolment as one factor in considering the closure of Dunach, located at the corner of Downes and Mt. Lehman roads. Some speakers said development in the area near Dunach and the four other western rural schools (Mt. Lehman, Aberdeen, Bradner and Ross) will result in higher stu-

They also said there are opportunities to market the school’s unique aspects as a school of choice and draw students from other areas, such as Aldergrove. “Dunach is a wonderful place and it is loved by everyone whose lives it has touched,” said parent Nathan Hilderman.

“It’s a jewel of Abbotsford that many of us are not even aware of.” Most speakers referred to the school population as a family in which everyone is welcome and supported. Dominic Hiebert, in Grade 4, was among the students sporting T-shirts that stated, “Keep Dunach our choice school open.” He said he began attending Dunach this year, after previously being home-schooled. At first he was nervous and felt out of place, but he was quickly accepted by his peers. “I want Dunach to stay open because everyone is so nice to each other,” he said. “If you close Dunach, I will be very sad and angry.” Other speakers criticized the board of education for not considering alternative uses for the school, such as a “neighbourhood hub,” space for full-day kindergarten and preschool programs, or as a heritage site. Parents said they were angry that the Continued on A6
NewsBytes THIEF GOES FOR A RIDE A thief who broke into a car in Abbotsford almost got a lift to the police station on Tuesday by the vehicle’s owner. A man was leaving his house at about 10:30 a.m. in the Old Clayburn area when he noticed his GMC pickup appeared to have been broken into. He took a cursory look at the vehicle and then departed. As he was driving toward the centre of town, he heard noises in the canopy and realized a man was in the back. The driver called 911 and reported he was on his way to the police station with the suspect. Traffic slowed in the area of South Fraser Way and Gladwin Road, and the suspect was able to escape, taking a compressor from the truck. Police arrived on the scene, but they were unable to track down the suspect.
BIG BABY Local football teams might want to keep their eye on a baby born at Abbotsford Regional Hospital to a Mission family. Marcus Armitage was born two weeks ago, weighing 13 pounds, 13.5 ounces and measuring just over 24 inches long. He is believed to be the largest baby born at the hospital. Parents are Josh Ferguson and Jennifer Armitage.
FAKE TAGS A series of fake 2012 car insurance validation tags could soon find their way onto Abbotsford streets following a scam pulled on Monday. A man entered the office of an insurance broker, claiming to work for ICBC. He said he was doing a graphic layout for the insurance corporation and asked if he could see the latest insurance stickers. Staff placed them on the counter, and the man took pictures and pulled out a colour palette to match the colours. He then drove away. Abbotsford Police Const. Ian MacDonald said it is believed he will now use the information to produce fraudulent tags and sell them at a lower price than people would pay for valid car insurance.

board had not worked with them in coming up with options other than closing the school. They urged trustees to work with them to “maintain, improve and enhance” Dunach. Closing the school would save the district $560,000 annually as well

near Agassiz. The crack cocaine user had mostly stopped work in the sex trade and had last been seen near the Waldorf Hotel two days earlier. No attempt was made to conceal the body of Pipe, 24, found Sept. 2 in the middle of a side road 10 kilometres north of the Lougheed Highway, en route to the Woodside hang glider launch area. The sex trade worker and cocaine user known to give money and clothing to the poor had last been seen four days earlier at the Cobalt Hotel. Younker’s partly decomposed body was found Oct. 21 36 kilometres north of Lougheed Highway on Sylvester Road near Mission, at the bottom of a 25-foot embankment on a dead-end logging spur road. The 35-year-old’s identification was later found in a dumpster near Vancouver’s Vernon Rooms Hotel.
She was last seen Sept. 11 of that year and police believe she was killed within 10 days. Investigators in the late 1990s thought a single killer was responsible for all women going missing and for a time discounted Pickton as a suspect because his DNA didn’t match samples found on the three bodies dumped in the Valley, the only physical evidence that had surfaced to that point. The VPD’s recently released Missing Women Investigation Review said excluding Pickton because he didn’t kill Pipe, Olajide or Younker was a critical mistake. “It was an error to assume that only one serial killer could have operated in a geographical area as large as the Lower Mainland and Fraser Valley, over the span of time involved.” Anyone with information can call the Project E-Valley tip line at 1-877687-3377.

Damara also wanted to clarify that the business will add a focus on pet services, and that the operators of Luna Kennels are supporters of the SPCA.

New library approved Abby Collegiate the site Kevin MILLS Abbotsford News
A new, state-of-theart library will be built in Abbotsford to replace the old MSA Centennial Library. Council voted unanimously to construct a $4-million, 15,000square-foot library on the site of the new Abbotsford Collegiate secondary school. The city partnered with the Abbotsford school district and the Fraser Valley Regional Library (FVRL) to develop the branch. “At the end of the day, this was a nobrainer for council,” said Abbotsford Mayor George Peary. He felt the Centennial Library was “becoming an embarrassment,” because it is not wheelchair accessible, is generally rundown and is in need of major upgrades. Once complete, the new library will be located approximately 700 metres west of the existing facility. The structure will
consist of 4,000 square feet for student uses and 11,000 for the public. This would mark the first time in Abbotsford that a public library was located on school district property. Councillors praised the project as being e nv i ro n m e n t a l ly friendly and socially beneficial while also being fiscally responsible. Coun. Dave Loewen called it “financially and socially a win-win” and Coun. Patricia Ross said environmental designs “just don’t get much better than this.” There will be 30 separate parking spaces for the general public with the remaining 300 spots for school use. Once complete, the old Centennial branch, located in downtown Abbotsford, will be decommissioned. While council and representatives for the Fraser Valley Regional
Library were praising the new project, several members of the public spoke against it. “We don’t have $4 million for this,” said Regina Dalton. “The city is governed by people who don’t care about downtown . . . I don’t like the word ‘decommissioned.’ The word is ‘closed,’” she said. Lynn Perrin told council that more people would be voicing concerns had they known public input was being accepted. “I can’t see the sense in this not going further east instead of going further west,” said Perrin, who added Yale secondary would be a better location. Other residents voiced concerns, including Mary Helen Hatch, who compared the library to a much bigger project. “I don’t think this is a good idea. I think this thing is being rammed down our throats like Plan A was.” Council was not

swayed by the comments. “It will be a huge win for our community,” said Peary. City manager Frank Pizzuto explained that no money would be borrowed to build the facility. The city has been putting $500,000 a year into a library reserve since 2009 and will have more than $2 million available by 2012. He said the city will have to change some funding priorities in the capital budget in order to raise the remaining funds needed. While officially the city will be leasing the land, Pizzuto said it is a lease in name only. “We aren’t paying anything for the lease. There is no cost to the lease agreement.” However, the city does have to pay its own share of the utilities and maintenance on the property.

Comment on any story online at abbynews.com or email newsroom@abbynews.com Published and printed by Black Press Limited 34375 Gladys Avenue, Abbotsford.
Controlling crime Some recently released statistics give Abbotsford residents more reason to feel secure, rather than fearful. Consideration of the city budget, and the proposed funding increase for the Abbotsford Police Department, gave municipal leaders an opportunity to reflect on the state of policing in the city. Mayor George Peary and Police Chief Bob Rich observed some statistics that show Abbotsford has a low crime rate: just 69 Criminal Code offences per 1,000 population, compared with 136 in Langley, 114 in Chilliwack and 99 in Surrey. That’s a stark contrast to the loud headlines that Abbotsford is the nation’s murder capital, based on nine homicides in the Abbotsford-Mission census metropolitan area in 2009. Also, the APD recently commissioned a survey which revealed that 93 per cent of city residents
feel safe. And why wouldn’t they? Most of the murders, although tragic for the families involved, have links to either the drug trade and/or organized crime. If your lifestyle does not bring you into contact with either situation, you can feel safe. The APD has recognized that the homicide rate in this city is high, and that drugs and gangs are responsible, and have taken proactive steps. These include a gang task force and the more recent Operation Lodestar program to educate parents about how to keep their children away from being drawn into the gang lifestyle. The APD has also helped to bring down some of the city’s most notorious criminals. As Abbotsford continues to grow, council will be challenged to ensure that the police department keeps pace. And it can do so knowing the money is being well spent.
Still waiting for a logical tax debate Tom
Fletcher
B.C. Views Like knights in a medieval reenactment, B.C.’s political combatants strapped on their armour to take the ritual sword-swipes over Premier Gordon Campbell’s latest income tax cut. Public sector unions were quickest to rattle their chain mail. The teachers and nurses were outraged that $600 million wouldn’t be extracted from the paycheques of working people each year and added to the already swelling health and education budgets. CUPE president Barry O’Neill weighed in: “It’s almost comical to see Mr. Campbell descending to the point of trying to entice voters to support the HST with their own tax dollars.” Almost comical? This self-serving routine by the public sector elites with their defined-benefit pensions is downright hilarious. Private sector jobs ultimately support the entire apparatus of govern-
ment, a fact that still seems to elude these ancient gladiators of the left. Campbell wasn’t much more convincing when I interviewed him the day after his $240,000 TV infomercial to unveil the 15-per-cent reduction of personal income tax, effective New Year’s Day. “The really important thing here is this is separate from the HST discussion,” Campbell said. “This is about leaving more money in people’s pockets.” Right. And the HST is about removing more money from people’s pockets. I had assumed that since the first third of Campbell’s TV address was devoted to his now-familiar defence of the HST, as a lead-up to the income tax announcement, there was some connection between the two. But apparently I was wrong. The timing of the second-biggest income tax cut in B.C. history has nothing to do with public outrage over the HST, or Campbell’s dismal popularity. It’s just the latest step in the master plan that began the day Campbell took office and slashed the personal income tax rate by 25 per cent. Regular readers will recall I predicted
Campbell would use the TV address to announce a cut in the HST rate, as soon as the contract with Ottawa allows him to do it in July 2012. But reducing the HST rate to 11 per cent would likely have cost the government more revenue. The income tax cut also has the benefit of showing up before people vote in the HST referendum next fall.
Private sector jobs ultimately support the entire apparatus of government I suggested to Campbell that the average person would look at a sales tax that shifts about $2 billion annually from business to consumers, and an income tax cut that puts $600 million back in their pockets, and conclude that they are worse off. He replied that “the arithmetic doesn’t work like that.” From an individual taxpayer’s point
of view, the premier is correct. But the combined effect of the HST and this income tax cut is middle class and wealthy individuals as a group paying more, and businesses paying less. Which brings us to another rusty old argument from the left: The income tax cut helps wealthier people more than poor ones. Yes it does. If you make $40,000 in 2011, you will save $236. If you make $80,000, you will save $616. You’ll probably spend those savings and more on consumption taxes, depending on how much you spend beyond necessities. I’ve been berated by readers for defending the idea that consumption taxes are better than income taxes. This would seem particularly true for B.C., where baby boomers will retire in droves in the coming years. We want people with money to move here and spend here. I assume that’s part of Campbell’s strategy, but maybe it’s too politically incorrect to say it out loud.

Support withdrawn I am writing regarding the latest news of charging seniors a per diem rate while in convalescent care. Convalescence is a part of the wellness continuum, and should a person who is living independently be in need of assistance during that time of healing, as a society, we ought to be looking after it. Considering many of our seniors are on a fixed and limited income, the care will be an addition to the cost of their regular living costs of maintaining their rent or fees at their home. I consider it a privilege to pay taxes that contribute to the care of our society’s weakest members, but I am increasingly concerned at moves by our governmental organizations to withdraw the support offered to those who have little voice nor power. Keep my 15 per cent of taxes, Mr. Campbell, and provide full service to our seniors and disabled citizens. Diane Sekuloff

Explosive issue In response to the Oct. 28 editorial headlined ‘Fire off a new law.’ Yet again, Halloween comes and goes with no change on the firework issue. Fireworks of any kind are banned here in Abbotsford. However, First Nations can still sell them on First Nations land; other surrounding communities may still sell them and let’s not forget our border to the south. It seems that anyone can bring anything across there. Fireworks are dangerous and should not be in the hands of anyone under 18. On Halloween night one 14-yearold kid almost blew his whole hand off from being around fireworks. Something has to change. I am

so sick of my property being used as target practice, my dog having a nervous breakdown and me being the only one to keep an eye on my kids. The editorial is right in saying that we need to have a provincial standard on this matter. I say only local firehalls should be in possession and let off fireworks. This would bring communities together, keep the event safe and allow police to closely monitor the discharge of explosives – because that is what they are. It is very sad that years of parents not monitoring their own children has led to the everyday family not being able to discharge fireworks in their own backyard. A. Byers

Budget gets slim approval ciencies they (staff) found but I’m not ready at this point in time to accept this in principle,� said Coun. John Smith, who felt more input must come from other groups, like the Chamber of Commerce. Other councillors agreed. Coun. Lynne Harris felt they were rushing the approval, adding that in the past, budgets were often decided in January or later. Councillors Patricia Ross and Bill MacGregor also voiced concerns prior to approval. The 3.5 per cent increase will go to the Abbotsford Police Department (two per cent) and to city operations (1.5 per cent). “That’s the cost of law and order,� said Abbotsford Mayor George Peary. “Last year we didn’t give our police any new officers and the crime rate still went down . . .

The Abbotsford Police will be getting six new officers and one new civilian employee, now that city council has given approval in principle to a 3.5 per cent tax increase for its 2011 operating budget. That figure will likely hit the 4.5 per cent mark after council considers an expected one per cent increase to its capital budget on Nov. 22. The decision to give approval in principle was not an easy one as several councillors voted against acting so quickly. “I’m encouraged by the many effi-

that,� he said. Police Chief Bob Rich told council a two per cent increase would suffice. Originally, the police board requested a 2.3 per cent increase, but because of a later startup date for the new E-Comm radio system (available in May), he said two per cent “is workable.� Despite the 1.5 per cent increase for city operations, cuts are still going to take place. Staff has recommended permanent staff reductions, reduced building maintenance and fleet efficiencies as some possible cutbacks. Changes could still take place on Dec. 6, when council will discuss the entire budget (operating and capital). If the increase stays as presented so far, the 2011 budget would be approximately $42 million for police operations, $83.5 million for city operations and $19 million for capital.

Abbotsford News
Over the course of a long football season, the accepted mental approach is to take it one game at a time. The danger, of course, is if you’re looking too far ahead, you’re liable to trip up and lose games you should win. The W.J. Mouat Hawks, though, freely admit they’ve had Friday, Nov. 5 circled on their calendars for quite some time. That’s when they take on the Terry Fox Ravens in a hotly anticipated No. 1 vs. No. 2 showdown. The Hawks have held down the top ranking in AAA varsity football since the season opened. Kickoff is 7 p.m. at Coquitlam’s Percy Perry Stadium. “We’ve been looking forward to this game since the start of the season, definitely,” Hawks quarterback Cam Bedore said during a break
from practice on Tuesday. “It’s the biggest game of the year so far, and we’re really excited about it.” The Hawks and Ravens are both 4-0 in AAA Eastern Conference play heading into the regular season finale, and have secured firstround playoff byes. But there’s still plenty to play for – Friday’s winner would be the No. 1 playoff seed, thus paving a smoother road in the post-season. Specifically, the winner will likely avoid a semifinal match-up with the No. 3-ranked Vancouver College Fighting Irish, who have been coming on strong of late. Plus, there are bragging rights to consider. Over the summer, Bedore and five of his fellow Hawks played alongside seven Ravens on the provincial under-18 team. Continued on A15
Carly Neeson and Justin Jansen have been named the University of the Fraser Valley’s athletes of the week. Neeson scored twice on the weekend to help the Cascades women’s soccer team to wins over Calgary and Lethbridge, which clinched UFV’s first-ever soccer playoff berth. Neeson has five goals this season. Jansen notched 18 kills, seven digs and three aces, and passed for a 2.9 average out of a possible 3.0 as the Cascades men’s volleyball team beat UBC-Okanagan on Saturday.

Heat penalty kill is potent, perplexing Dan KINVIG Abbotsford News
When the Abbotsford Heat are on the penalty kill, somebody’s bound to score. At least, that’s the fascinating pattern that’s been observed through the first 12 games of the 2010-11 campaign. The Heat rank 28th out of 30 AHL teams in penalty kill efficiency at 77.8 per cent, but on the flip side, they also lead the league in shorthanded goals with five. To put that number in per-

The AAA high school boys basketball season is set to tip off in style at the University of the Fraser Valley. On Nov. 29, UFV’s Envision Athletic Centre will host the second annual Valley Battle. The doubleheader features the defending B.C. champion Yale Lions taking on the Terry Fox Ravens at 6 p.m., followed by the R.C. Palmer Griffins against the W.J. Mouat Hawks at 8 p.m. All four teams are expected to be ranked in the top 10 to start the season.

Ben Cummings, Tanner Friesen and David Taylor also found the end zone for the T-Wolves, while Gavin Rowell was 5-for-5 on converts. Kent Hicks led the defence with two sacks, while Cummings, Parm Sidhu and Sam Kuyek each snagged interceptions.

Both teams can run Cascade v-ballers sweep Heat From A12
“Off the field, we’re friends. On the field, not so much,” Bedore said with a grin. In many ways, the Hawks and Ravens are mirror images. Both QBs can run the ball – Fox pivot Cam Canales has scampered for 604 yards and nine touchdowns, while Bedore has 504 rushing yards and eight TDs. Fox’s stacked backfield also includes the likes of Jacob Patko, Matteo Nardone and Jared Soll, while tailback Devin Logan and fullback Brady Churly are bigplay threats for Mouat. “What they try to do – and we try to do the same thing – is set up the pass with the running game,” Mouat coach Denis Kelly analyzed.
“You commit to stopping their favourite plays, but then they’ve got a few counters and play-action passes off of that.” In terms of differences, Fox boasts more size on the line, while Mouat’s offence is a more diverse – Bedore’s 1,209 passing yards are third-most in the province, nearly double Canales’s 630. Mouat linebacker Jake Heathcote acknowledged that the Ravens’ size advantage will present a challenge. “We’ve got to have all our assignments down and be really solid so we don’t give them an inch,” said Heathcote, who is tied for tops in B.C. with 70 tackles. “You’ve got to work on your technique, and you’ve got to be aggressive.”
goals, a further reason for optimism is the Heat’s improved level of discipline this season. In 200910, Abbotsford was the AHL’s most penalized team, spending an average of 22.4 minutes per game in the sin bin. They’ve made quite an aboutface this fall, ranking 26th in penalty minutes at 15.2. Q The San Antonio Rampage, the Heat’s guests this weekend, are red-hot heading into a two-game set at the Abbotsford Entertainment and Sports Centre (Friday and Saturday, 7 p.m. both

nights). The Phoenix Coyotes’ affiliate leads the AHL’s West Division with a 7-2-1-0 record, and they’re undefeated in regulation over their past seven games. “They’ve had some struggles the last couple years, but management has gone out and gotten them some good players to work with,” Playfair said, alluding to veteran newcomers like centre Tim Stapleton and blueliners Garrett Stafford and Nolan Yonkman. “They feel good about themselves, and they’re a good team.”

PRIZES INCLUDE:
Abbotsford tenor Shane Wiebe has had another busy year touring the country, entertaining faithful audiences with his renditions of traditional hymns. As part of his busy schedule, Wiebe recently wrapped up recording the first full-length album with the group, Tenore, formally known as the Christian Tenors. The trio of tenors will be performing in Abbotsford on Nov. 13 at 6:30 p.m. at Sevenoaks Alliance Church to promote the group’s new self-titled album. Most of the tracks are favourites among Christians. “What’s interesting about these hymns is that the melody is always very familiar,” Wiebe said. “We like to keep it as true as we can so that people can sing along. That’s what we want them to be about. But the intricate harmonies and the new arrangements and the challenging music – I mean, it is

written for tenors. We’re up in the rafters half the time. It’s hymns with an adrenaline rush. There’ll be times when we’re belting it out.” Wiebe’s favourite hymn is Blessed Assurance, but his top pick from the new album is This is My Father’s World. Special guests at the Tenore show will be the MEI concert choir. Tickets are available at the door as of 5:30 p.m. When not performing with Tenore, Wiebe and his wife Angela perform together across the country. On Oct. 28 they were in Calgary at the 32nd annual GMA Covenant Awards, and were nominated in four categories. Getting to tour with his family has been a real blessing, he says, because the three most important parts of his life – God, wife and family – get to be the focus of his work every day.

“All three of them really line up well in the fact that our music means that we’re home with the kids a lot,” he said. “And we’re singing music that reflects our faith. I can’t imaging asking for much more than that.” The couple have given it their all this year with an 11-week summer tour across Canada and the U.S. in a 29-foot motorhome to promote their latest album, Restore the Wonder. The CD was released in May with 10 of the 12 tracks written and performed by the couple themselves. They have been singing together since the day they met, and about two years ago the pair ramped up the number of their performances, despite the difficulty of paying bills as full-time musicians. “We decided if we were going to go forward, it was going to be us together,” said Wiebe. “We decided we were going to jump in with both feet.” Well into the new year, the Wiebes are booked for many performances at events and churches as far away as Saskatchewan.

Winter colour needs planning plantings if we get a long bitter cold spell without any protective snow covering. Heathers can be used in many ways. They make ideal ground covers when planted at 24 inch centres. Depending upon the variety, they make a good, compact summer cover that becomes a sea of colour when you need it most in the winter. They make ideal border plants and just sensational small hedges. I love to use them in containers, especially in winter colour gardens. At this time of year, heathers would certainly liven up your outdoor planters. No rock garden would be complete without a grouping of heather, and blocks of white heather planted among your evergreen beds would create quite a pleasing effect.

Winter flowering heathers are one of the most outstanding source of winter colour in the Pacific southwest. Soon the loss of all our lovely fall foliage will make November seem far more bleak than other winter months. The fresh appearance of heather buds can really transform a dull winter garden into an attractive show place, and with a little careful planning, you can stretch that colour from September until May. There are, however, a few secrets to planting and displaying these colourful plants. One of the finest features of ericas is their ability to grow in areas where other plants have some difficulty. Certainly they perform well in good soil, but they are also ideal for well drained areas and sloping hillside gardens. Over the years, I have had the most success by preparing the planting hole with a mixture of bark mulch and sand. Heathers will not tolerate heavy clay soils or wet feet, but I’m surprised at how much shade they’ll accept. Although they are sun loving plants, heathers bloom just as profusely, perhaps a little bit taller, in shady locations. One very important feature to remember is the fact that heathers have hundreds of finely textured roots. Unless you moisten the rootball thoroughly and ruffle up the root system, your heather will probably get into trouble fairly quickly. A rootbound plant has difficulty pushing its roots out into new soil unless the outer mat of solid roots has been carefully loosened. Winter heather is very hardy, but we have always had better luck planting them away from the coldest winter winds. Just throw a bit of Remay cloth or landscape fabric over newer
