Hebe NZ native with mauve feathery flowers
This lovely NZ native Hebe flowers at about this time of the year. With glossy round leaves and Long graceful spikes of little mauve flowers it makes a lovely show every year. A very photogenic shrub.
It needs a metre square to show off at its best.
The little plant Im selling is 17cms high with lots of new growth at the base.
It will take off once it is put in the ground.
They are frost hardy.

I have mine growing in a large planter and it seems happy in there. Has been there for years.
Pickup is in Kuripuni.
Poll: Do you think NZ should ban social media for youth?
The Australian Prime Minister has expressed plans to ban social media use for children.
This would make it illegal for under 16-year-olds to have accounts on platforms including TikTok, Instagram, Facebook and X.
Social media platforms would be tasked with ensuring children have no access (under-age children and their parents wouldn’t be penalised for breaching the age limit)
.
