Hebe pinguifolia ‘Sutherlandii’

Hebe pinguifolia ‘Sutherlandii’ Description

Hebe pinguifolia ‘Sutherlandii’ forms a compact, spreading evergreen mound with small rounded leaves covered in a pale grey-blue bloom. Short white flower spikes rise above the foliage in late spring and early summer and attract small pollinating insects. Mature plants generally reach around 30 to 50cm high and spread 60cm or more. Grow in full sun in poor to moderately fertile soil with very good drainage. It tolerates coastal air, wind and short dry periods once established and is one of the more cold-tolerant hebe cultivars. Irish winter rainfall is less problematic where the plant is grown on raised or freely draining ground. Pruning is rarely required apart from lightly shortening stray shoots after flowering.
