Have a large example of the one on the right at the front ..if it has a label can you remind me of the name please ?

That's H. ochracea 'James Stirling', Bb. Aren't I a clever clogs!

(I only know because I had a tiny one...and it didn't survive for long...boo hoo!)

Thank you Spritz any more than 2 syllables and it doesnt stick with me ..Ok with hebe then get lost ..really doesnt look like one does it more heather like in appearance and has delicate white flowers.

17 Nov, 2009

 

I'm sorry to say that I never saw the flowers, Bb!! :-(((

Not at all surprised that you couldn't remember that lot! I didn't remember the middle bit - I confess - I looked it up! I did know the 'James Stirling ' bit, though.

Really quite sweet pure white at the extreme tips ..what with this and coprosma think thats 2 nil to me .. I fully understand the need for latin names as common ones lead to confusion and latin ones ensure same plant should be known the world over .. just cant pronounce most of them !

17 Nov, 2009

 

sorry i didnt answer you ray been out to see will young woohoo, and no tag and wouldnt have known, good job barbara was around :o))

17 Nov, 2009

 

No worries Sandra .. I should know but really struggle with latin names kinda like algebra to me never stuck or made sense ..

17 Nov, 2009

 

same here ray, im hopeless at latin names to, if its pretty i get it, dont care what it called, keep the tags lol

17 Nov, 2009

 

Oh Spritz, I have just purchased a small James Stirling hebe - what chance does it have in my garden if it didn't survive yours? Help :)
