Looking for a care-free plant that is beautiful as well? Meet Speedwell (Veronica). Do you have any in your garden?
.
Design tip for containers, hanging baskets and window boxes:
Use groundcover varieties that will trail over the edge and plant in combination with other plants with mounding and upright habits. Smaller spiky types can also be combined in containers with other plants with similar growing needs.

Bonus: The #flowers are attractive to hummingbirds, butterflies & pollinating insects. Pictured: ‘Icicle’ Spike speedwell blooms early summer. Zones 3-8. Photo by Chris Forbes.
