Q.planting a hebe shrub near foundation
Can I plant a hebe shrub near a house foundation? I have been told not to plant near my house wall because the roots will get into the foundations. Is there a root problem with hebes? I live in Woore, Cheshire.

Hebe shrubs would make a good foundation shrub. I found nothing in my research to indicate otherwise.
I am going to recommend the following article which discusses foundation planting:
