- Hebe variegata is a compact, evergreen shrub known for its bright, variegated foliage and tidy growth habit. The leaves are a mix of soft green with creamy white edges, often flushed with hints of pink in cooler weather, giving the plant a fresh, colorful look year round.
- In summer, it produces short spikes of small lavender to pale purple flowers that rise just above the foliage. These blooms add a soft seasonal accent and bring in pollinators, especially bees, adding a bit of movement and life to the garden.
- Hebe variegata has a naturally rounded, dense form that makes it a great choice for borders, low hedges, containers, or as an accent in mixed plantings. Its clean shape and colorful foliage make it easy to work into both formal and more relaxed garden styles.
- This plant performs best in full sun to partial shade and prefers well drained soil. It benefits from regular watering during establishment, but once mature, it is moderately drought tolerant. It also does well in coastal conditions, including wind and salt exposure.
- It typically grows 2 to 4 feet tall and wide, forming a neat, compact shrub. It is well suited for USDA zones 8 through 10 and is hardy down to around 25 degrees Fahrenheit. The foliage is evergreen.
- Hebe variegata is generally considered non toxic, making it generally a safe choice for gardens with pets and children.
- The flowers attract pollinators such as bees, and the plant is moderately deer resistant and typically avoided by rabbits once established.
- With its colorful foliage, compact form, and easy care nature, Hebe variegata is a great option for adding year round interest and structure to the garden.
