Heide (also outdated, Haide) is the name for a type of landscape and originally named the land that was not built up by humans, later also an utterly barren landscape that could not be reclaimed and was thus a synonym for wilderness. In a narrower sense, biology understands it to be a type of vegetation that is characterized by shrubs or dwarf shrubs with evergreen, hard foliage. Heaths are particularly those that are dominated by the heather family, such as the Atlantic dwarf shrub heaths of north-western Europe, but also the heaths of Australia and the fynbos of South Africa.
