My Favourite Name

I love saying the name of this plant. Hebe! Hebe, Hebe, Hebe! These are quite a common plant, originally from New Zealand. A hardy little shrub that with little effort, will put on a lovely display of flowers that are just comming out of bloom now. The tiny little flowers come shades of purples, pinks and whites. If you hunt around you can get purple/white or pink/white mixes. They grow best in full sun and will benefit from a light prune every month or 2. Try not to be to hacky hacky with the pruning as they dont seem to recover quickly or well from that.
