Thanks, Mark. Here is another query - probably Dave in New Zealand can help with this. Last year I ordered Hebe epacredea from the seedex. This tiny plant germinated but didn't look like pictures I've seen of this "whipcord" hebe and I thought perhaps it hadn't been named correctly. However, now that it is up (only a couple of inches high), it has developed that "ropey" look of the whipcord and I'm wondering if this is its natural development. It sure looks like a whipcord now. My garden group at the University is preparing for its annual plant sale next week and I like to be sure I label things properly. Thanks for any help. Fran
