Veronica pectinata
Blue Woolly Speedwell
Quick Facts :: Growing Tips
Legend
Description:
2” x 18” wide (cutting propagated). Without question, this is one of our finest xeric groundcovers. The woolly evergreen foliage creates a handsome, dense, gray-green garden carpet. In early spring the foliage disappears under a profusion of white-eyed, true-blue fading to lavender flowers. This durable, long-blooming perennial is not picky about its planting site; it thrives in any well-drained soil. An easy-to-grow must-have groundcover for any garden, Woolly Speedwell is an outstanding companion for early to mid-spring blooming bulbs where its blue flowers provide and cool back drop to wildflower tulips, miniature daffodils, miniature Iris and Crocus.
Zones 4-9
Special Notes:
Plant this with Penstemon, Artemisia and Nepeta.
