Hebe 'Patty's Purple', Veronica 'Patty's Purple'
Hebe buxifolia ‘Patty’s Purple’ is a compact, rounded evergreen shrub forming a mound of very small, deep green leaves. Resembling boxwood, the foliage densely covers the striking wine-red stems. In summer, pretty spikes of lavender-purple flowers appear at the tips of the branches. They fade to white as they mature, creating a bicolor effect. Fast-growing, Hebe buxifolia ‘Patty’s Purple’ is a great choice as a specimen plant, a low hedge, or a mixed border. Great in a seaside environment.
