Plant details
This white-flowering New Zealand hebe makes a shapely, compact dome covered in grey-green leaves which are supplemented in June and early July by spikes of white flowers. It thrives in most gardens without extremes of dryness or moisture, and requires very little care, just a quick light trim in March. A good alternative is 'Red Edge' which has a dark red line around the edge of the leaf. Like most hebes, it makes an attractive pot plant. It has been given the Award of Garden Merit (AGM) by the Royal Horticultural Society.
