Nursery contributed plant descriptions

A miniature hebe, with densely held, tiny box-like leaves, blue-gray with a maroon margin especially in winter. Flowers, white on short spikes, are said to appear very rarely. It's really the foliage.... To only 4-5" tall spreading to 1' wide with symmetrical branching habit, these have been used for bonsai and in troughs, as well as rock gardens where soil is well-drained and some summer water can be supplied. Very frost hardy, to USDA zone 7. Plantaginaceae

Yes, smaller yet is this little critter, with tiny leaves that are grayish blue-green. Hasn't bloomed for us thus far, but it's supposed to, according to literature. Let's say it's less floriferous. Evergreen.
