This sturdy hebe holds almost succulent, green leaves edged with creamy margins on upright stems to 3'. White flowers appear in summer. This is an excellent choice for containers or for the foreground of perennial beds.

A very hardy hebe with such compact, tight growth that it does, indeed, look like a trimmed topiary in maturity. Leaves are gray-green with creamy edges and are held at an upright angle creating an interesting texture in an evergreen shrub that eventually reaches 3-4 ft tall x 4-5 ft wide. In the best of times, small, gauzy white flowers are decorative in late spring to early summer. Good drainage is important for hebes and fill sun with occasional summer water. Frost hardy to 0F, USDA zone 7.
