Think I'd assume it's a slightly less than hardy one - hebes sold without names at this time of year often aren't terribly hardy ones.

probably why they were so cheap
£1.99 each!!
aah well if it makes it then good oh
if not then I tried

.. or it could be Great Orme, that's a good old reliable one. Cuttings take quite well from these.

p.s. this one is hardier than the variegated one.

Defo not Great Orme - leaves aren't narrow enough.

Sad to say all these Hebes with relatively large leaves tend to suffer in Winter, not just from frost but from our dull cold climate . They come from New Zealand and probably miss the fresher air .. Small leaved ones are mostly OK except the lovely early flowering 'Litttle Marie', which needs slight winter shelter . and is worth it.

Il bring them both into the greenhouse for the cold season, thought it had started yesterday but its gorgeous sunshine this morning

Could be Hebe 'Eveline', but there are now so many new hybrids, it's hard to be sure.
