Key Features:

• Variegated foliage: Hebe Heartbreaker boasts striking variegated foliage, with leaves adorned in shades of green, cream, and pink. The variegation adds depth and visual interest, creating a vibrant backdrop for other plants. The leaves are small and lance-shaped, giving the shrub a fine-textured appearance.
• Compact size: This Hebe variety has a compact growth habit, reaching a height of approximately 1 to 2 feet (30 to 60 cm) with a spread of about 1 to 2 feet (30 to 60 cm). Its modest size makes it suitable for smaller gardens, rockeries, or as an accent plant in mixed borders.

• Evergreen beauty: One of the highlights of Hebe Heartbreaker is its evergreen nature. It retains its foliage throughout the year, providing a constant source of color and structure, even during the winter months. This ensures that your garden remains visually appealing and vibrant all year round.
• Delicate flowers: In summer, Hebe Heartbreaker produces lovely spikes of delicate lavender-blue flowers, adding a touch of elegance and charm to the landscape. The flowers are attractive to pollinators, such as bees and butterflies, making it a beneficial plant for encouraging wildlife in the garden.
• Low maintenance: Hebe Heartbreaker is known for its easy care and low maintenance requirements. It is tolerant of a variety of soil conditions, including well-draining soils. It prefers full sun to partial shade and requires regular watering, especially during dry spells. Pruning is not typically necessary, but occasional shaping can help maintain its compact form.

Maintenance:

To keep Hebe Heartbreaker looking its best, follow these maintenance tips:

• Light requirements: Plant Hebe Heartbreaker in a location that receives at least 4 to 6 hours of direct sunlight per day. While it can tolerate partial shade, full sun exposure generally promotes better foliage variegation and flowering.
• Soil conditions: Provide well-draining soil that is enriched with organic matter. Ensure that the soil remains consistently moist but not waterlogged. Adding mulch around the base of the shrub helps retain moisture and suppress weed growth.
• Watering: Water the plant regularly, especially during hot and dry periods. Aim for deep, thorough watering to encourage healthy root development. Avoid overwatering, as this can lead to root rot.
• Fertilization: Apply a balanced slow-release fertilizer in early spring, following the package instructions for application rates. This will provide the necessary nutrients for healthy growth and vibrant foliage. Avoid excessive fertilization, as it may lead to excessive vegetative growth.
• Pruning: Pruning is generally not required for Hebe Heartbreaker. However, if necessary, lightly trim the plant after flowering to maintain its shape and remove any dead or damaged branches. Avoid heavy pruning, as it may affect the overall appearance and flowering potential.
• Pest and disease control: Hebe Heartbreaker is generally resistant to pests and diseases. However, keep an eye out for common garden pests, such as aphids or spider mites, and treat any infestations promptly using appropriate insecticides or organic pest control methods.
