Hebe diosmifolia 'Minor'

Dwarf Shrubby Veronica

Description:
Compact, evergreen New Zealand native shrub with small, narrow, glossy green leaves and a naturally dense, rounded growth habit. This dwarf form of Hebe diosmifolia produces delicate spikes of white to pale mauve flowers during spring and summer, attracting bees and other beneficial pollinators. Its fine foliage, tidy form, and low-growing habit make it an excellent choice for borders, rockeries, containers, and smaller garden spaces.

Height:

40–60cm

Width:

50–80cm

Position:

Full sun to light part shade. Prefers an open position with good air circulation and tolerates coastal conditions and light frost.

Soil:

Well-drained soil is essential. Adaptable to sandy, loamy, or light clay soils, but avoid heavy, poorly drained sites.

Uses:

• Low hedging and edging
• Rockeries and alpine-style plantings
• Mixed shrub borders
• Containers and small gardens
• Coastal gardens
• Pollinator-friendly planting

Care Tips:

• Water regularly while establishing; once established it is moderately drought tolerant
• Lightly trim after flowering to maintain a compact shape and encourage bushy growth
• Apply a balanced slow-release fertiliser in spring to support healthy growth and flowering
• Mulch around the base to retain moisture and suppress weeds, keeping mulch clear of the stems
• Avoid overwatering, as hebes prefer free-draining soils and can be prone to root issues in wet conditions
• Hardy throughout much of New Zealand, tolerating wind, coastal exposure, and light frost once established
