Hebe Vernicosa (9cm)

Hebe ‘Vernicosa’ is a highly versatile shrub native to New Zealand. A compact, evergreen shrub with attractive glossy, dark green foliage and small, white to pale blue flowers appear around the tips of the stems in the early Summer contrasting nicely with the darker leaves and attracting butterflies, bees and other pollinators into the garden. A perfect choice for enhancing garden displays or used as low informal hedging, edging for mixed borders or in rockeries. It also works very well in pots and containers with its rounded habit making it very easy to manage.

A low maintenance plant. Grow in moist, well-drained soil and keep in full to partial sun. Tolerant of coastal salty air but will require protection from frosts and high winds in the Winter months.
