Veronica spicata 'Royal Candles' (Speedwell)

Deep violet-blue spikes on this very compact Veronica don't grow over 17", but prolific they are, blooming abundantly in June and July. The flower spikes are held well above the foliage, making them especially showy. 'Royal Candles' also drew our attention being free of problems with leaf spot, disease and insects that plague other Veronicas. It also keeps its lower leaves that are a rich glossy green. Good drainage is essential coupled with moderately fertile, loamy soil.
