Planting and Care Tips

Hebe frozen flame flowers are known for their resilience and adaptability. They thrive in well-drained soil and enjoy a spot with full sun to part shade. These hardy evergreen shrubs tolerate coastal conditions and light frosts, making them an excellent option throughout New Zealand. Prune lightly after flowering to maintain the plant’s shape and encourage new colourful growth. Mulch around the base to retain moisture, and water well in the first year until established.
