              Bought this hebe in Home Bargains for £3.99.

              No Label with it though.
              Anyone knows what variety it is?

                  Failing that try Katrina, mine didn’t survive the winter average of ‘16.

                    It looks like the popular Hebe elliptica variegata to me which is hardy at least down to -5c.
                    There are a lot of Hebes on the market now that look similar.

                          Visited Shrub Shack next to Cadbury Garden Centre today and came away with this Nandina Domestica Firepower for £10.
