Add Year-Round Color with Hebe ‘Mrs Winder’

Compact, evergreen, and beautifully structured, Hebe ‘Mrs Winder’ is a standout variety that delivers exceptional year-round interest. This hardy shrub is particularly loved for its transformative foliage; its narrow, dark green leaves take on a dramatic deep purple or bronze hue during the colder months, providing much-needed warmth and structure to the winter garden. Its neat, rounded habit makes it a reliable choice for modern landscapes, decorative containers, and low hedging schemes.

From late spring and through the summer, ‘Mrs Winder’ produces elegant, slender flower spikes in a rich shade of violet-mauve. These blooms rise gracefully above the dark foliage, creating a beautiful colour contrast and providing a vital nectar source for bees and butterflies. Supplied as a healthy, fully established 2L rootball, this Hebe is professionally grown in premium peat-free compost, ensuring it arrives well-branched and ready to make an immediate impact in your outdoor space.

Key features:

• Dramatic Winter Foliage: Leaves turn a stunning deep purple-bronze in cold weather.

• Established 2L Pots: Mature, well-rooted plants for quicker establishment and instant impact.

At The Rose Press Garden, we love...
The way 'Mrs Winder' completely transforms as the seasons change. While most plants are losing their lustre in winter, this Hebe starts to glow with its signature purple tones. We love using the established 2L size because it gives you that lush, "filled-in" look in your garden right away, ensuring your borders look professional and structured from day one.
