Veronica Magic Show 'White Wands'

Versatile Veronica Flowers Serves as Ideal Complement!

Magically transform the back portion of your garden with 'White Wands', an outstanding choice to back up your low-growing perennials and provide summer dazzle. Growing no higher than 16 inches, Spike Speedwell looks great in front of shrubs and other back borders.

The name of this hot-temperature sparkler is appropriate. The flower spikes that top the tall green Spike Speedwell look much like a fairy godmother's wand in a children's story. The tapering to the tip of the flower creates an enhanced magical appearance.

Bees, butterflies and hummingbirds crave 'White Wands' sweet nectar, bringing addition life into your floral display. The glossy, dark green leaves are more attractive and disease resistant than older Speedwells.

Blooming from midsummer, the white spikes on 'White Wands' flowers' combine marvelously with brightly colored annuals. The medium-green foliage is also complementary to many flowers and plants, serving as ideal background to the white spikes.

Though it needs consistent, average amounts of water, the Speedwell is durable and relatively free of maintenance requirements. It prefers full sun, but adapts to partial shade. It grows in neutral, acidic, and alkaline soils and displays well in combination containers.

This new introduction, part of the Magic Show ® Collection, provides exceptional versatility. It shines when planted in a combination container near the front of a flower border. The white blooms allow for a myriad of combinations. Regardless the pairing, the bright, but complementary color to all other garden partners, makes 'White Wands' a valuable addition to any floral arrangement.
