This is one of many pages describing plants and animal life
that we have in our garden. In many cases, we don't know what they are. Comments welcome.
By default the photos on this page are relatively small (“thumbnails“). Click
on them to get progressively larger photos.
In November 2007 we were given a number of tubes
of Hebes, but we're not sure which kind. By
the time we planted them in mid-December, they were no
longer in the best of shape:
A couple of the ones with the fungus on the roots died, but most of them did well. I forgot
to take any photos of them in full bloom, but here they are in January 2009. The first one is one of the plants that survived the root rot. The
inflorescences are significantly longer than the “normal” violet-coloured hebes.
