Hebe 'Black Panther'
This distinctive shrub was bred in Europe. It has an erect bushy shape. The large glossy dark green leaves emerge dark purple. Showy clusters of cerise flowers emerge in spring and contrast well with the foliage. Performs well in a full sun or semi-shade. Tolerates an exposed position in the garden. Great to provide interest and colour amongst other shrubs.
