Hebe ‘Julia’

Common Name:
Hebe 'Julia'

Description:
Hebe 'Julia' is a compact, evergreen shrub valued for its neat rounded habit, glossy green foliage, and attractive spikes of mauve-purple flowers. Flowering mainly from spring into summer, and often with additional spot flowering in mild conditions, it brings reliable colour and structure to borders, low hedges, cottage gardens, coastal-style plantings, and pots. In Melbourne, Hebe 'Julia' performs best in full sun to part shade with well-drained soil and good airflow. It prefers regular watering while establishing, then becomes reasonably hardy once settled. Light pruning after flowering helps maintain a dense, tidy shape and encourages fresh growth.
