I assume by the Latin name you mean the genus/species. Heather is Calluna vulgaris. Heather is the only species in the genus Calluna, in the family of Ericaceae. Interestingly, the Latin counterpart of the English/Scottish first name Heather is Erica.

Yes, maples like ericaceous compost. The kind of dark-colored, fresh-smelling, nutrient-rich compost in question tends to be associated with the Ericaceae family of heaths and heathers. But members of the Acer genus also tend to handle a compost that appeals to plants that prefer soil pHs in the acidic range.

Yes, Acer negundo 'flamingo' likes ericaceous compost. The dark-colored, fresh-smelling, nutrient-rich compost in question makes Ericaceae (heath and heather) family members and select other plants happy.

Autumnal, spring, and summer fertilization schedules is the time to use ericaceous compost. The compost in question references the needs of plants that prefer soils more in the acidic soil pH ranges and that respond disastrously to lime treatments. It responds therefore to the requirements of such Ericaceae plant family members as azaleas, heathers, heaths, magnolias, and rhododendrons.
3 answers
No, not all shrubs love ericaceous compost. The compost in question offers amendment, fertilizer, and mulch possibilities to shrubs (and other woody, as well as non-woody, plants) that favor soils whose pH measures in the acidic range. The word ericaceous references plants in the Ericaceae family, commonly called the heath or heather family even though it includes such even more famous plants as azaleas and rhododendrons.

blueberry, plant of the large genus Vaccinium,widely distributed shrubs (occasionally small trees) of the family Ericaceae (heath family), usually found on acid soil. They are often confused with the related huckleberry. Blueberries were a favorite food of the Native Americans, who ate them fresh or dried them for winter use. The berries have been an article of commerce since early days. The high-bush blueberry (V. corymbosum) and the low-bush blueberry (V. augustifolium or pennsylvanicum), native to North America from Minnesota eastward, are the species most often cultivated, and a number of varieties are now grown in the East and West. Various species are sometimes called bilberry or whortleberry. The "huckleberry" of florists, sold for greenery, is a West Coast evergreen species, V. ovatum, called box blueberry and kinnikinick. The related cranberry is considered by some botanists to be of the same genus as the blueberries. Blueberries are classified in the division Magnoliophyta, class Magnoliopsida, order Ericales, family Ericaceae.

There are many species of fynbos, a unique floral kingdom of about 9000 species in total found nowhere else on the planet. Fynbos comprises Restionaceae, Proteaceae and Ericaceae primarily but also includes much of Asteraceae and many geophytes.
Disa uniflora is an orchid of Table Mountain worth noting as is the Table Mountain Pride Butterfly. From Proteaceae, Leucadendron argenteum is a tree found ONLY on Table Mountain and very few surrounding hills with bright silver leaves and sexes differentiated between different plants. Porcupines, caracals and babboons are the largest mammals I suspect would venture through the fynbos of Table Mountain.
Birds include Cape francolin/spurfowl, Orange breasted sunbird, the chaffinch which is nonindigenous to the area, Helmeted guineafowl, Spotted/Karroo Prinia, Cape white-eye and many others.

South Africa has a few mountain chains. There are the Langeberg, Outeniqua and Drakensberg Mountains. There is the famous Table Mountain in Cape Town.
Rivers include the Vaal and Orange River. Lagoons include Langebaan and Knysna Lagoon.
Habitats in the country are semi-desert, desert, karroo, fynbos, forest, Savannah and grassland (veld). Some of the 'veld' may be bushveld or thornveld. Fynbos is a vegetation type composed of proteas (Proteaceae), restios (Restionaceae) and ericas (Ericaceae). Fynbos straddles the coast. Forest is found only on the East coast and in Knysna on the Southern coast. The karroo semidesert extends in the rain shadow for vast 'central' regions of the country. The provinces of Gauteng (when not Johannesburg-Pretoria conurbation) and the Free State are grassland. In the Northeast South Africa borders Namibia and the Namib Desert (not contained in South Africa). In the Northwest, South Africa borders the bushveld and baobab-worlds of Botswana and Zimbabwe.
The province of the Northern Cape shares a little of the Kalahari Desert with Botswana.

Bogs are found in wetland areas characterized by acidic and nutrient-poor conditions. They are common in regions with cool and humid climates, such as northern Europe, North America, and parts of Asia. Bogs are also found in high altitude regions and can exist at different latitudes around the world.

Arctic tundra contains areas of stark landscape and is frozen for much of the year. The soil there is frozen from 25-90 cm (9.8-35.4 inches) down, and it is impossible for trees to grow. Instead, bare and sometimes rocky land can only support low growing plants such as moss, heath (Ericaceae varieties such as crowberry and black bearberry), and lichen. There are two main seasons, winter and summer, in the polar tundra areas. During the winter it is very cold and dark, with the average temperature around −28 °C (−18 °F), sometimes dipping as low as −50 °C (−58 °F). However, extreme cold temperatures on the tundra do not drop as low as those experienced in taiga areas further south (for example, Russia's and Canada's lowest temperatures were recorded in locations south of the tree line). During the summer, temperatures rise somewhat, and the top layer of the permafrost melts, leaving the ground very soggy. The tundra is covered in marshes, lakes, bogs and streams during the warm months. Generally daytime temperatures during the summer rise to about 12 °C (54 °F) but can often drop to 3 °C (37 °F) or even below freezing. Arctic tundras are sometimes the subject of habitat conservation programs. In Canada and Russia, many of these areas are protected through a national Biodiversity Action Plan.
So yes it does
