La mayoría de sus miembros posee pétalos ligeramente fusionados y flores radialmente simétricas que forman cápsulas frutales y finos recubrimientos para las semillas. Sus miembros también contienen IRIDOIDES, compuestos que protegen de los herbívoros. Algunos ejemplos de ericales son especies de importancia económica tales como el TÉ, el KAKI, los ARÁNDANOS AZULES (PLANTA), las NUECES DE BRASIL, la azalea, el ARÁNDANO ROJO y RHODODENDRON.
