Veronica peduncularis Georgia Blue

Georgia Blue Speedwell

Georgia Blue Speedwell spreads into a low mat of small, pointed leaves. Deep blue flowers appear in loose clusters over an extended period in spring and summer.

The stems root as they grow, helping the plant fill gaps and soften edges. It may retain foliage in mild weather, making it useful for small groundcover patches and sunny rock-garden spaces.

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