 Veronica:
Common name: Speedwell Plants with lovely spires of blue or white flowers early in summer. Not fussy about soil type but on the whole prefer soil that isn't bone dry. They grow in sun or partial shade. Propagation is by division and we find this is most successful in early spring. Bee plant. Right: Veronica gentianoides Tissington White makes a beautiful early display of flowers in sun or part shade.

  Veronica gentianoides
Tissington
White
The pure white form of this lovely plant that arose in the Derbyshire village of Tissington. We met the Granddaughter of the man who discovered the plant. She told us her Grandfather always intended that the plant should be called "Tissington Spire" but the nursery he gave it to ignored him and named it Tissington White. Height and flowering times are the same as the basic species. |

Veronica gentianoides
Variegata

as the standard variety but with beautiful cream-splashed leaves. A lovely
addition to the garden. |
Veronica longifolia
Intense blue flowers in spikes atop 2ft - 3ft stems with whorls of long, pointed leaves spaced along them. May need staking if grown in rich soils. Will self seed but only gently!
