Description
Adopt the Hebe Pink Paradise, year-round decorative with its evergreen bluish-green foliage. Throughout the summer, this compact bush is covered with clusters of pink and melliferous flowers. Moderately hardy (-10°C) and easy to grow, plant the Hebe Pink Paradise in well-drained soil and full sun. In the garden, it will be most effective in a border, a low hedge, a flowerbed, or even in a container. It is the ideal bush for coastal gardens.
From the plantaginaceae family (formerly known as scrophulariaceae), Hebe Pink Paradise is one of the many cultivars of Hebe. It forms a dense bush that doesn't exceed 60 cm in all directions. This variety remains attractive throughout the year with its evergreen foliage. Its leaves are ovate, 1 to 2 cm long, and have a beautiful glaucous green colour. They provide a nice contrast with the purple stems. Very floriferous, Pink Paradise is covered in pink spikes. The buds are white with a hint of pink. The flowers attract bees and other pollinators. The inflorescences measure between 4 and 6 cm long and bloom above the foliage.
Hebe Pink Paradise thrives in full sun and well-drained soil. It particularly suits a maritime climate. Moderately cold-resistant, plant it in a pot in colder regions so you can bring it indoors in a greenhouse or conservatory during winter. It is perfect for creating a slightly taller border or a low hedge, with flowers present all year round. Create a flowerbed with pastel tones that will attract butterflies and other pollinators by combining it with a ‘Mareva’ decorosier rose and a ‘Pink Panther’ Buddleia davidii.

Planting and care
Easy to grow, the Hebe 'Pink Paradise' prefers sunny locations and well-drained soils that do not retain too much water. It tolerates sea spray quite well and adapts very well in coastal gardens. Moderately hardy, it can withstand temperatures down to -8 / -10°C. In colder regions, it is best to protect it during winter or plant it in a pot and bring it indoors in a frost-free greenhouse or conservatory. After flowering, remove faded inflorescences with pruning shears. This light pruning will help maintain a compact habit.

Hardiness is the lowest winter temperature a plant can endure without suffering serious damage or even dying. However, hardiness is affected by location (a sheltered area, such as a patio), protection (winter cover) and soil type (hardiness is improved by well-drained soil).
The flowering period indicated on our website applies to countries and regions located in USDA zone 8 (France, the United Kingdom, Ireland, the Netherlands, etc.)
It will vary according to where you live:- In zones 9 to 10 (Italy, Spain, Greece, etc.), flowering will occur about 2 to 4 weeks earlier.
- In zones 6 to 7 (Germany, Poland, Slovenia, and lower mountainous regions), flowering will be delayed by 2 to 3 weeks.
- In zone 5 (Central Europe, Scandinavia), blooming will be delayed by 3 to 5 weeks.
In temperate climates, pruning of spring-flowering shrubs (forsythia, spireas, etc.) should be done just after flowering.
Pruning of summer-flowering shrubs (Indian Lilac, Perovskia, etc.) can be done in winter or spring.
In cold regions as well as with frost-sensitive plants, avoid pruning too early when severe frosts may still occur.
The planting period indicated on our website applies to countries and regions located in USDA zone 8 (France, United Kingdom, Ireland, Netherlands).
It will vary according to where you live:
- In Mediterranean zones (Marseille, Madrid, Milan, etc.), autumn and winter are the best planting periods.
- In continental zones (Strasbourg, Munich, Vienna, etc.), delay planting by 2 to 3 weeks in spring and bring it forward by 2 to 4 weeks in autumn.
- In mountainous regions (the Alps, Pyrenees, Carpathians, etc.), it is best to plant in late spring (May-June) or late summer (August-September).
The harvesting period indicated on our website applies to countries and regions in USDA zone 8 (France, England, Ireland, the Netherlands).
In colder areas (Scandinavia, Poland, Austria...) fruit and vegetable harvests are likely to be delayed by 3-4 weeks.
In warmer areas (Italy, Spain, Greece, etc.), harvesting will probably take place earlier, depending on weather conditions.
The sowing periods indicated on our website apply to countries and regions within USDA Zone 8 (France, UK, Ireland, Netherlands).
In colder areas (Scandinavia, Poland, Austria...), delay any outdoor sowing by 3-4 weeks, or sow under glass.
