I have a couple of sirocco shrubs that the pigeons have been eating, I am thinking of putting them in pots to try and rescue them. My question is, is it okay to plant them in
ericaceous compost?

The reason I asked, is because I already have a bag of ericaceous. There's no need for me to go out and buy Multi-purpose if I don't have to. I just thought it would save me time and money if I can utilise what I already have.

Yes they should be ok in Ericaceous compost according the the RHS they are not fussy on soil pH.

I dont recognise which plant this is. Is sirocco a variety name. Or do you mean Sarcococca [sweetbox] that flowers in the middle of winter.
if its Sarcococca then it will be fine in multi-purpose or your own garden soil.
