Hebe 'Mrs Winder' Hedge Plants Description
Hebe Mrs Winder, sometimes referred to as Shrubby Veronica, is a low-growing evergreen hebe. It flowers profusely with long, purple-coloured, tapered flower spikes from late summer, throughout autumn and often into early winter. This variety is also salt-tolerant making it an excellent choice for coastal areas.
In ideal conditions, Hebe Mrs Winder can grow to about 1.3m tall, but on average usually grows to around 1m or slightly less, so it's particularly suitable for a low hedge. When trimming, we'd recommend it being neatened up into a series of mounds or a rounded hedge rather than have hard edges imposed on it, in order to highlight its best attributes.
Mrs Winder prefers a sunny situation and moist well-drained soil; it also benefits from being protected from fierce winter winds. It is somewhat faster growing when young but once it reaches its maximum height, the growth slows and it requires very little maintenance other than an annual trim to keep the desired shape.

What are root types?
Root types explained.
-
Bare root
Field grown, bare roots are young plants that are only planted when they are dormant, from autumn to spring. We lift bare root plants and despatch them during the season but they can be pre-ordered in summer. As they are cheaper to grow, they are one of our most affordable hedge planting options.
-
Pot grown
Pot grown plants can be planted year round and make a convenient option. They come in a wide range of sizes, from 10cm to 2.5m so they're suitable for the majority of planting requirements.
-
Root ball
Also field grown, root ball plants are scooped out of the ground using machinery to keep their root system intact and wrapped in bio-degradable, hessian sacks. They are mature plants that provide dense coverage very early on, ideal for when you need a thick hedge quickly.
-
Instant
Grown in troughs or bags that measure 50cm-1 metre in length and carefully clipped during the growing season. Our instant hedging troughs create a dramatic, instant hedge effect.
