Veronica incana Pure Silver is an erect, clump-forming, spiked speedwell cultivar that is noted for its silver foliage and summer bloom of blue flowers. Narrow, toothed, lance-shaped, silver-gray leaves (to 3” long) typically form a foliage mound to 12” tall. In late June, erect flowering spikes featuring tapered-at-the-top spike-like terminal racemes of small, densely packed, deep sky blue flowers rise well above the foliage mound to as much as 28” tall. Flowers are attractive to bees and butterflies.

A Northern Sunset Perennial, it prefers average, well-drained soil in full sun to part sun.
