    My opinion does not necessarily make it true. What you do with my opinion is entirely up to you.

    Brian,

    Excellent images.

    I suppose your Hebe must be a macrocarpa variety. There has been nothing much here and we ha a hard frost this morning.

    Thanks all for the comments - appreciated :):

    Harold - Not sure of the species of the hebe. It's a very big one and the flowers change from purple to white.
