Veronica Spicata 'Sightseeing'

Trial: Annual

Years Trialed: 1997

Good Qualities

Bloomed all summer; Quick to produce, no insect problems, can be cut back with a lawnmower and will rebloom; No disease, large plants from first year growth; Good color mix-pink, white and blue.

Problems

Too short (4); hold judgement until next year.

Comments

I know others use a lot of this, but I couldn't ever find any stems long enough to use; Good germination. If this an annual as it states (my other ASightseeing; is perennial) it is quite late and not many cuts.
