Elevate your garden with the award-winning elegance of Hebe rakaiensis, a remarkable evergreen shrub that effortlessly combines beauty and functionality. Honoured with the RHS Award of Garden Merit, this plant boasts a neat, compact habit, forming a low, dense cushion of glossy green foliage. From early summer, the garden is graced with short, white flower spikes that not only enhance the visual appeal but also attract a myriad of pollinating insects, creating a vibrant and biodiverse outdoor haven. Ideal for oriental planting schemes, rockeries, or the front of sunny borders, Hebe rakaiensis adds year-round colour and structure to your garden landscape. Its versatility extends to coastal or city gardens, where it tolerates polluted and salt-laden air with ease. With a height of 100cm (39") and a spread of 120cm (48"), this low-maintenance shrub thrives in moist, well-drained, light sandy soil. Plant in full sun or semi-shade, sheltered from strong winds, and water well after planting.
