Hebe Frozen Flame

Hebe 'Frozen Flame' is a compact, rounded, evergreen shrub forming a mound of slender, gray-green leaves with irregular creamy-white margins. Both leaf tips and edges turn bright pinkish-purple in cold weather. In summer, small lavender flowers appear on the tips of the branches. However, the main contribution of this evergreen shrub is its brightly colored foliage throughout the year. A great choice as a specimen plant, for containers or the mixed border.
