species
Hebe dilatata
The epithet dilatata might mean broadened or widened, from Latin dilatus, but Simpson and Thomson (1943) did not explain its derivation. Bayly and Kellow (2006) suggested it might refer to the spreading habit of some plants. However, Simpson and Thomson’s description mentions the corolla tube is widest at the throat, and it might thus be a reference to the dilated corolla tube.
