Bush I.D
I hope these pictures show up and someone could help me identifying a mystery bush in my garden.
Recently moved into a new house and have no idea what this is could anyone help? http://i198.photobucket.com/albums/a...rout/bush1.jpg http://i198.photobucket.com/albums/a...t/100_1020.jpg http://i198.photobucket.com/albums/a...rout/bush3.jpg |

I wish mine looked half as healthy, if I'm right!! Cat(h) Was in Naas (rhymes with mace for you foreigners) on Monday (buying lunch in M+S) and on to Pollardstown Fen to see if it is still there. It was still there. We stopped at the monster garden centre (Johnstown?) on way back. It is a horrible place in many ways (piped "music" in the half/outdoors area) but it does have a huge range of stuff. Bought seeds and onion sets. Des |

Definitely Hebe and if it isn't salicifolia, it is almost certainly a
hybrid with that species in its recent background. The trouble is that many Hebes are highly promiscuous and interbreed freely, resulting in a mess of hybrids that are a devil to nail a definitive ID. They also seed quite freely and volunteer plants are not uncommon so un-named hybrids occur with regularity. A picture of the plant in flower might help, but there's a few months to go before it performs. |
Thanks for your replies.
Its narrowed it down a lot for me.....Ill see if I can find out what kind of hebe it is. Seems very nice anyway so I won't be moving it :) |
