@rachelbrooks thanks chick 😘

Great photo Keels 😍

@jeatacake cheers Jeff 😄

Here come the first blooms n the bees love this one too #beemagnet 💜🐝🐝🐝

Ah yes, this one. Thank you Keely 💜💜

@midnightgardener that's it hun I must remember to do new cuttings will add it to to do list that seems never ending 😂😂

@Keely Good idea. I should try too 😊😊

@midnightgardener easy to do they get a bit big for my front border so I swop them round every couple of years 😁

Full Bloom 💜💜💜 the 🐝 love this one

That's lovely keely 😍

@gjones it's a great evergreen shrub for the pollinators 😄

@hobnob thanks Jo 😊

A beauty! Very jealous as i lost most of my heebees this winter 😣. They bees love them so much don't they!

@SylviaDavies this one is their favourite Sylvia it did suffer over winter but I cut half back and left half both sides still flowered lovely so pleased although have taken two cuttings too as this one gets bigger each year so I tend to start again after 34 years 😊

@Keely ditto. Id taken cuttings last year but despite having taken, the frost etc got the better of them too! 😣

@SylviaDavies that's annoying 😵

Very!!! @Keely so much for trying to be organised!

That's lovely Keels 😍

@jeatacake thank you 😄

So many flowers on this one now 💜💜💜🐝🐝🐝

Gorgeous 💚💜💚💜

Gorgeous, love this one 💜

Lovely 💚💜💚

Few more flowers hope it still flowers in spring though 😠💜

Lovely 💜💜💜 @Naomi126 this look like the plant you were asking about

@Naomi126 really easy to do cuttings this is from work did 6 cuttings and all of them took no problem doesn't get woody at base either like some hebes do. You wont be disappointed with it 👌💜

@gjones oh that's such a shame as they are a great compact shrub that the wildlife love so a joy for all

Yours is looking great. So many flowers 👍 A lot more than on mine. @Naomi126 I've done plenty of Hebe cuttings too & as with Keely's, near 100% success rate 😊

They are a lovely little shrub. I've put a couple in with the rhododendrons ☺

Can't beat a Hebe - such an undemanding, reliable shrub and the bees love 'em! 💜🐝

@lovemygarden65 spot on by the looks of things 👌🏻 thank you big time 😘 might have liberated 12 X cuttings hope they cope 😬😋👌🏻 great and ice thx @keely to @jeatacake too 👌🏻

Errmmm wrong season so many confused plants!! 💜💜💜

Mmmmm, now this looks familiar 😉

Should I let this one know its not spring yet!!!!! 💜💜💜

I do like hebe's, liking the variegation too @Keely

Such pretty flowers opening up

I don't think mine will flower this year. It was looking awful, so I gave it a good prune. Maybe next year 🙂

@mrsburns mines a mass of flower's but will need to cut it right back as really it can get too big for my little border 😊

A mass of flower ready to burst out love the 💜💜💜 flowers on it

This was a cutting from a plant at work done last year got 6 plants in total .... Freebies 🙌

👍👍

Like hebe's @Keely for free?? Even better, 6 plants is great!!

Teeny flower buds coming

Great colour graduations
