Andy Stockton, nursery friend and hebe geek, purchased this from Cistus Nursery. He liked it so much, he gave cuttings to us. The evergreen leaves of Hebe 'Hythe Hybrid' are margined in burgundy with a blush of purple on the leaves. They are concave in shape and are glaucous on their upper surfaces The burgundy of the leaves is also present in the leaf petioles. The leaves are stacked whorls of four up the stems. Because of the short internodes between each whorl, this shrub is dense and compact.
