Hebe topiaria (Topiarist's Hebe)
A wonderfully compact shrub, Hebe topiaria has prized dimensional foliage of grey and green hues, that are accentuated by yellow-green edges. Small white flowers adorn this neatly shaped plant in the summer and fall, depending on growing conditions. Hebe topiaria is a winner of the prestigious Award of Garden Merit of the Royal Horticultural Society.
This is a low maintenance shrub that is very versatile. You can grow them on slopes, banks, in beds, containers, rock gardens, city gardens, use them for borders, and even in coastal gardens. This hebe can reach about 3' tall x 4' wide when mature, and should be placed in full sun to partial shade. We recommend well-draining soil, and slightly alkaline to neutral if possible. Hardy to 0°F when protected from windchill.
