Hebe ‘Winsome Girl’ is a hardy, compact, narrow-leafed hebe cultivar with purple and green foliage, with green hues dominating during the warmer months and purple tones talking over as weather cools. It has violet-blue flowers in autumn. It will grow approximately 40cm high by 60cm wide.
It prefers full sun but will tolerate some shade and needs trimming after flowering to maintain bushy growth and to encourage blooms for the next season. In areas of high humidity a general fungicide spray annually may be beneficial.
