Veronica spicata 'Glory' (PBR)
speedwell (syn. Royal Candles / Ulster Dwarf Blue)
Dense, slender spires of star-shaped, deep blue-purple flowers from June to August above hairy, toothed green leaves. This marvellous speedwell is guaranteed to create an impact at the front of a mixed or herbaceous border. To thrive it requires a well-drained soil as plants that become waterlogged over winter are unlikely to survive.
