Hebe ...mauve feathery fronds. NZ Native
I think this is a most beautiful hebe with its long mauve flowering fronds. It is a delicate mauve colour, not whitish as in one of the photos.
Name: Hebe Hulkeana ( A NZ nativew)
Hardy and doesn't mind drying out.
I've had one in a large concrete plant where it can fan out beautiful showing off its Gysolphilia like flower fronds about 15 years and its still doing well. ( I think it got its roots down through the hole in the pot into the ground though)
Thanks for looking.
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)
.
