Plant description

Bring colour and life to your garden with rich, vibrant purple flower spikes that bloom from summer into late autumn. This evergreen shrub attracts bees and butterflies, providing a valuable source of nectar over an extended period. Hebe 'Addenda Purple' forms a neat, compact habit, making it ideal for borders, beds, and patio containers.

The deep purple flowers appear in profusion, standing out against glossy, evergreen foliage that remains attractive year-round. It thrives in full sun or light shade and is remarkably hardy, tolerating typical UK garden conditions with low maintenance requirements, once established.

Its long flowering period ensures a constant splash of colour through summer and into early frost. Perfect for attracting pollinators, its compact, evergreen foliage combines with vibrant flowers for a strong seasonal impact.

How to care for Hebe Addenda Purple (Addenda Series):

Plant in well-drained soil with added well-rotted compost to improve fertility and structure. Incorporating mycorrhizal fungi at planting helps establish strong root growth.

Choose a sunny or partially shaded spot in a sheltered position, as hebes prefer warm, protected locations. Water regularly until established, then they become more drought-tolerant and require minimal care except in very dry summers where additional irrigation will support leaf and flower development.

Pruning is usually unnecessary, but you can remove misplaced or frost-damaged branches in late spring to maintain shape and encourage fresh growth. Avoid hard pruning into old wood, as hebes may not regrow from bare stems. Apply a balanced fertiliser in spring to promote flowering and overall health.

In colder regions, mulch around the base in autumn to offer some winter protection. Protect the foliage with horticutural fleece if severe or prolonged frost is forecast.
