Hebe topiara (Hebe)

Hebe prefers being planted in full sun, but will tolerate light shade and all but the toughest of garden soils - avoiding planting in very dry or wet soils. This Hebe would also suit being planted in a pot or container. Avoid planting in very exposed cold locations as Hebes can be tender. Trim in spring, removing leggy growth.
