Veronica Ronica Blue

Veronica, the speedwell, sends up slender spikes of tightly packed flowers above a low mound of fine green foliage, flowering through spring and summer and drawing bees while it does. It suits the front of a bed, an edging run or a pot, and the spikes cut well for a small vase. Ronica Blue is a compact, uniform form with dense violet-blue spikes. Full sun to part shade. Well-drained soil. Water regularly through the warm months. Remove spent spikes to bring on the next flush.
