Hebe elliptica forms an evergreen, bushy shrub 40 in (1 m) or more high. The
leaves are fleshy, green, oval, 0.75–1.5 in (2–4 cm)
long, with light edges. The flowers are white to pale mauve, and relatively
large.
This hebe is fairly hardy in the UK. It is variable in habit in the wild, and is found on the west
coasts of the South and North Islands of New Zealand, also in southern South America and the
Falkland Islands.
