Product description
Hebe Celebration is an evergreen shrub with foliage which will add an abundance of colour throughout the year as the variegated yellow-green leaves show great character. From the centre of each leaf, a dark green stripe is formed. This adds to the classy look of the plants foliage which, when fully grown alongside the other features of the shrub, gives it a great backdrop for the purple flower spikes in Spring and Summer. Hebe should be planted in moist, well-drained soil and kept in full sun at the best of times. You should water the plant when the conditions are very dry. Aside from that, low maintenance care levels can become regular.

Garden Plant Size Guide
Plants in larger pots can be multiple years older than their smaller counterparts with more mature root systems and foliage. This makes them able to thrive as a full size plant in your garden quicker than smaller alternatives.
The most common size of pot that garden plants come in are 9cm/1L/3L/5L this is in reference to the diameter at the top of the pot.
9cm potted plants still remain the most popular cost effective option though, they just may take a little patience to allow them to grow into full maturity once planted in your garden.

Instructions
Top Tip
Prune lightly after flowering to encourage bushy growth and maintain the plant’s shape. Avoid heavy pruning, as Hebes may struggle to regrow from older wood.
How to Water
Water Hebe thoroughly after planting, then keep the soil evenly moist during the first season. Once established, they are drought-tolerant and require only occasional watering during dry periods.
How to Plant
Plant Hebe in well-draining soil in a sunny or lightly shaded spot, sheltered from strong winds. Dig a hole twice the width of the root ball, place the plant at the same depth it was in its pot, and backfill with soil. Space plants 60-90cm apart for full growth.
