Veronica Flower

The Veronica flower, also known as Speedwell, is a charming and versatile perennial known for its striking, spiky flower clusters and lush green foliage. Blooming from late spring to early fall, Veronica flowers come in a range of colors, including shades of blue, purple, pink, and white. The flower spikes can reach heights of 1 to 3 feet, making them excellent for adding vertical interest to gardens. Veronica flowers are loved by pollinators like bees and butterflies, and they thrive in full sun to partial shade with well-draining soil. They are also drought-tolerant once established, making them low-maintenance and perfect for both garden beds and borders. Their long blooming period and attractive, lance-shaped leaves make them a favorite among gardeners seeking vibrant and enduring floral displays.
