Description
An unusual image of a white hebe on a white background with a raised white section with shadow, all mounted on dark green.
The evergreen leaves are green or green-blue, broadly spear-shaped.
It is named after John Buchanan, a Scotsman who botanised in New Zealand and Campbell Island.
Hebe is a name of ultimately Greek origin. It comes from a Greek word meaning �Youthful�. In Greek mythology Hebe is the name of a daughter of Zeus and Hera and the goddess of youth. As well as this the name Hebe could come from New Zealand, where it is the name of a native plant.
