VERONICA (Speedwell)

An extensive group of perennials, the dwarf varieties of Speedwell are better for rock gardens, groundcovers and edging while taller varieties make excellent border plants and cut flowers.
VERONICA 'Sunny Border Blue'

Speedwell

Flowers: dark violet blue spikes Height: 18-20"
Plants form a bushy clump of crinkled, dark-green leaves, bearing spikes of deep violet-blue for weeks on end in June to August.  Removing faded spikes will keep plants in flower for much longer.
