Veronica Icicle

Veronica Icicle

Icicle Speedwell produces slender white flower spikes above a clump of bright green leaves. The narrow, toothed foliage gives the plant a crisp outline before flowering.

Its upright summer display adds lightness and height among lower perennials. White flowers make it easy to combine with both warm and cool planting colors.

Choose full sun and well-drained soil. Provide adequate moisture during establishment.
