Hebe albicans

Hardy, compact, evergreen shrub with attractive grey-green foliage. Masses of white flowers, with prominent purple anthers, are displayed during spring. A reliable and colourful addition to garden beds and containers. Prefers a sunny to lightly shaded position in well drained soil. Tolerates wind and frost once established. Water after planting until established. Light pruning after flowering will enhance plant shape. Cultivate soil before planting. Dig hole twice the width of the container. Remove plant from container and place into the hole so the soil level is the same as the surrounding ground.
