Veronica spicata 'Candela Blue'
Veronica spicata 'Candela Blue' is a compact, upright perennial producing elegant spikes of rich violet-blue flowers above neat mounds of deep green foliage. Its vibrant blooms add height, structure and long-lasting colour to sunny borders, containers and cottage gardens.
Flowering from early to late summer, the densely packed flower spikes open gradually from the base upwards, extending the display over many weeks. The nectar-rich flowers are highly attractive to bees, butterflies and other beneficial pollinators, making this variety an excellent choice for wildlife-friendly planting.
Easy to grow and low maintenance, 'Candela Blue' thrives in full sun and well-drained soil. Its compact habit makes it perfect for the front of borders, patio pots and mixed perennial displays, where it provides reliable colour and excellent garden performance.
