Blue Carpet
Veronica Seeds
Veronica spicata
In late spring and early summer, bright violet-blue flowers grow in 6-8 in. tall spikes above a dense carpet of narrow, toothed deep green foliage. Blue Carpet veronica is at home in garden pots and low borders, and makes a great small-scale ground-cover that can be mowed when blooming has finished in late summer. A first-year flowering perennial, winter hardy to zone 4.
