Veronica

Speedwell

According to legend, Saint Veronica used her handkerchief to soothe Christ’s brow, and forever after, it bore markings that are supposedly replicated in these long blooming Speedwell flowers. Flourishing in sunny, well drained sites, our Veronica selections are undemanding, and deliver dazzling color to the summer border.

A low mass of silvery, Sage-like foliage—linear, handsome and mostly evergreen—hosts elongated, deep violet-blue spires on gracefully sweeping, leafy stems. Along a path or cascading over a wall, ‘Silbersee’ enhances the apricot blooms of Papaver spicatum.

Blooms June–July.

Size: 12" high x 12" wide; hardy to zone 4.

Customer Comment:

“As a customer of many years' standing, long before online gardening was even possible, I can testify that the plants from Digging Dog have been consistently healthy and hardy through the years. They are also the biggest plants I've ever received by mail. Enormous root systems!”
