Veronica prostrata


Creeping Speedwell

 USDA Zone: 2-9

Plant number: 1.540.620


Short spikes of starry light-blue flowers completely smother the mounding grey-green foliage of this low creeper in late spring. A beautiful edging plant, great when massed or grown in the rock garden. Tolerates heat and drought once established. Clip or mow after flowering to maintain an especially dense and compact habit. Clumps are easily increased by digging and ripping apart into smaller pieces in spring or early fall.
