Parahebe Delight

The leaves of Parahebe’s are on flexible wiry stems and are small, dark green and ovate, often with toothed edges. The flowers are frequently white, pink or mauve with contrasting veining. Flowers appear in late spring and summer and multiple flushes of blooms are possible. Most parahebe’s are subshrubs (somewhere between a shrub and herbaceous perennial) and are evergreen or semi–evergreen in the Pacific Northwest. Thus, they can be added to your spring, summer, fall or winter garden.
