Hebe 'Andersonii Variegata' - Pomul de aur (Evergreen)

Hebe 'Andersonii Variegata' is a decorative perennial plant, valued 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 has been widely spread in European gardens due to its attractive appearance and ease of maintenance.

The leaves are small, elongated and have irregular, white or cream edges, which provide a pleasant contrast to the dark green center of the leaf. In bright light, the edges can take on a pinkish tint, further enhancing the beauty of the plant. Hebe 'Andersonii Variegata' is a compact shrub, which can eventually 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 sun or partial shade. It is relatively cold-resistant, 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 compact form and stimulate new growth. It is an excellent choice for gardeners looking for a hardy and decorative plant all year round.
