A gardeners’ favourite, Hebe Addenda® ‘Donna Elsa’ is a wonderful variety that combines bold colour with year-round structural interest. With abundant spikes of dark pink flowers and rich dark green foliage, there is plenty to admire throughout the year.
A hardy and low-maintenance shrub, the evergreen foliage acts as a wonderful backdrop to its beautiful flowers and acts as a foil for other plants when it is not in bloom. With a long flowering period, this plant will create a wonderful floral display and attract a host of bees and butterflies into your outside space.
Perfect for planting as a standalone feature to admire or for combining with an array of other plants such as salvia, lavender or ornamental grasses for a wonderful mix of texture and colour. Position your hebe along a footpath, in a pot or create mesmerising beds and borders that are filled with low maintenance, colour and interest.
