Please, could anyone tell me, what is the difference between Hebe
pinguifolia "pure" species and Hebe pinguifolia 'Pagei'? I've read all
available information and either the two are confused or the only difference
is in height

Regards, Barbara.

I don't really know either but this site lists each one.
The only difference appears to be the flowering time
The pagei appears to flower earlier

Hang around for a while I am sure someone else will be able to give more
authoritative information

Hi Barbara,

I have found both in 'Hebes Here and There' by Graham Hutchins (ISBN 0
9530940 0 6).

Hebe pinguifolia is described as being a very variable species. It can be
prostrate or erect, from 15cm (6") to 1m (3') tall. Flowers are white, in
May and June.

H.p. 'Pagei' is described as wide-spreading, low-growing; up to 20cm tall by
1m wide. Flowers are white in April/May-June. The leaves may have a pale
margin and be slightly purplish when young.

There is an illustration which suggests that 'Pagei' has longer internodes
and slightly larger leaves.

Hope this helps.
