About 15 years, it came from my old garden when I moved. It was given to me by an a friend called Shirley, I've no idea of it's real name :o))

Isn't it lovely? I have it planted against my fence now! :D I also grabbed a small one yesterday on the sale table at Dobbies..£5 for a good sized 'Strawberries and Cream' and I planted it in place of a paeony that has never flowered beside the gravel seating. I really hope it survives. It looked fine but totally pot bound and had no flowers on it at all. So that's 2 Hebes now! lol...living 'dangerously' me!

I'm sure Shirley's Hebe wont let you down Karen. The other cuttings have doubled in size since I re-potted them. Yours must be breathing a sigh of relief to get out of the box and in the ground! I will look 'Strawberries and cream' up.

That is a beaut, just bought a new Hebe, first one in over 10 years, silly really as there are so many grown down South, I feel a new collection coming on.

Some of mine have taken a knock with the last two winters but this one seems to be bullet proof.
