Does anyone know where I can get one of these from?

Hebe Great Orme - or is it the wrong time of year?

My dad used to have one but killed it one year and he misses it!



thanks in advance


I asked this about a month ago and no takers then either I'm afraid. I
found several nurseries that said they had it (online) but when actually
pushed to confirm they said they hadn't got it after all! Where have
they all disappeared to I wonder?

Hebes have in recent years been suffering from a nasty fungal disease, I
have stopped growing them even though they used to do very well here, so
I suspect that some nurseries are losing more in the winter because they
are poorly and may have run out
