The Hebe Addenda Wild Blue can bloom for up to 150 days, generally from June through the autumn months.
Yes, it is a nectar-rich variety specifically noted for being highly attractive to bees and butterflies.
Absolutely. It is specifically suited for patio pots and containers as long as the pot is well-drained and the plant is watered regularly.
While it is a hardy evergreen, it requires protection during severe frosts to prevent damage to the foliage and root system.
It thrives in fertile, well-drained soil. Avoid heavy or waterlogged ground.
Light trimming after the flowering season can help maintain its shape, but it generally keeps a neat, compact form naturally.
Often a sign of overwatering or poor drainage. Check that your pot has adequate drainage holes and allow the soil to dry slightly between waterings.
The plant is likely suffering from moisture stress. Increase the frequency of watering and ensure the plant is getting adequate moisture during heatwaves.
The plant may not be receiving enough sunlight. Hebes require a sunny or partially shaded position to produce maximum blooms.
To ensure your Hebe thrives, plant it in a location that receives full sun or partial shade. Ensure the soil is fertile and, most importantly, well-drained; these plants dislike sitting in waterlogged ground. If planting in a container, use a high-quality potting mix and ensure the pot has drainage holes. Watering is crucial during the first season and throughout dry summer spells, especially for containerized plants that dry out faster than those in the ground. During winter, if you live in a region with extreme cold, move the container to a sheltered porch or wrap it with horticultural fleece to prevent frost damage to the roots and leaves.
