Cultivation:
Plant in full sun to partial shade in well drained soil. Veronica
will grow well in poor soils. Fairly drought tolerant. Veronicas
with furry leaves dislike having wet feet while dormant. An
excellent choice for rock gardens.
Propagation:
Seed can be started in a cold frame or greenhouse in fall and held
until the next growing season. Since most of us are unable to do
this your best bet is to purchase pre-started plants at your local
Garden Center. Once established plants can be divided in spring or
fall.
Potential pests ~ diseases:
Mildews. |
