    Hello all...

    I am looking for something I found on Pinterest. Blue veronica looks like a aptly named ground cover... Thanks in advance.

    I grow Veronica spicata 'Ulster Blue Dwarf' (Speedwell) and love it. It is a taller variety and looks great with bee balm, Black-eyed Susans and probably a lot of other perennials. It is pretty long blooming for me.

    I have some too. It stayed green all winter and practically bloomed all year. I've just added some more.

    I would like to get some Blue Veronica. I am also addicted to Pinterest besides here.

    I live in zone 9.

    I found some at Lowes. So they shouldn't be too hard to find.
