CHOCOLATE BOX™ Hebe Raspberry Truffle

The Chocolate Box Hebe's foliage is at its darkest during the cooler months. You will have deep purple/brown leaves in late autumn, through winter into early spring. During summer, the foliage changes to shades of green.

Whilst they can tolerate part shade, they are best grown in all-day sun to maximise their growth and flowering potential.

For the best results, fertilise in late autumn and again in spring with a slow-release all-purpose fertiliser.

The best time to prune is in January – February before the plants flower in April - May.

The Chocolate Box™ Hebe's are drought-tolerant once established. However, we would recommend good, consistent watering in the first 12-18 months of their establishment. When watering, water at the base of the plant is used for the best results, as this will assist the water in penetrating the soil and hydrating the roots.

They will flower in spring and autumn, with spot flowering in summer.
