A Bluestone Classic - Tried and True
Veronica Waterperry Blue is a low-growing, long-flowering groundcover or a great alpine plant for the rock garden. Deep green leaves tinged with burgundy and copper overtones provide a lush backdrop for the dainty lavender-blue, dark-veined flowers with white eyes. Burgundy foliage tones will intensify during the cooler months.

Veronica General Information

Veronica provide some of the clearest true blues available in perennials, along with rich purples, pinks, and whites. Neat tidy plants have glossy foliage and will fill in without overpowering. Long-lasting color. Idaho has restricted all potted plant material from being shipped into Idaho at this time.

Veronica Plant Care

Prefers evenly moist soil with good winter drainage. Can be divided every 3 years in spring or fall. To keep tidy plants, shear back by 1/2 after flowering. If not cut back in summer, prune down to basal growth in late autumn.
