#ProPlantTips for Care:
Speedwell is an easy-to-grow herbaceous perennial that flowers brilliantly in partial sun in well-drained soil locations. Ensure Veronica gets regular moisture throughout the growing season to keep blooming despite the heat. Provide a 3-4 inch layer of arborist mulch for moisture retention and insulation. Deadhead as soon as the blooms fade to encourage new blooms to form. Once the foliage dies back after frost, you can prune the mound to remove excess debris. Veronica are heat and saline-resistant, and deer-tolerant plants!
- Blooms Best in Full Sun
- Well-Drained Enriched Soil
- Salt & Heat Tolerant
- Regular Moisture Needs
- Deadhead For Rebloom & Prune Mounds Late Autumn
- Seldom Damaged By Deer or Rabbits
