Hebe 'Andersonii Variegata' - Golden Tree (Evergreen)

Hebe 'Andersonii Variegata' is a decorative perennial plant, appreciated for its variegated, evergreen leaves, which combine shades of green, white and sometimes pale pink. This plant is part of the Plantaginaceae family and is native to New Zealand, although it was also widely spread in gardens in Europe due to its attractive appearance and ease of maintenance.

The leaves are small, elongated and have irregular, white or cream edges, which provides a pleasant contrast with the dark green center of the leaf. In conditions of strong light, the edges can take on a rosy tint, emphasizing even more the beauty of the plant. Hebe 'Andersonii Variegata' is a compact shrub, which in time can reach a height of approximately 90-110 cm and a similar width, making it ideal for borders, rock gardens or as a container plant.

This plant prefers well-drained soils and exposure to the sun or semi-shade. It is relatively resistant to cold, but in areas with harsh winters it is recommended to protect the plant. It blooms in summer, producing small, lilac-colored flowers, grouped in dense inflorescences, which attract pollinating insects.

Hebe 'Andersonii Variegata' is easy to care for, requiring moderate watering and light pruning after flowering to maintain a compact shape and stimulate new growth. It is an excellent choice for gardeners looking for a resistant and decorative plant throughout the year.

Height with pots included: approx. 50-60 cm
