The dusky lavender-purple buds on the flower spikes open to rosy purple flowers, giving the plant a unique and interesting bicolor look. The 6- to 8-inch-tall vertical spikes rise above a bushy, rounded mound of healthy, rich green foliage, making them excellent for cut flowers and sure to capture the attention of hummingbirds, butterflies, and other beneficial pollinators. Very Van Gogh combines beautifully with other summer-flowering perennials such as Shasta Daisies, Coneflowers, and Black-Eyed Susans (Rudbeckia). Easy to grow in well-drained soil with six or more hours of sunlight daily, and you might be happy to know that the deer and rabbits turn up their nose at it.\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv\u003e\u003cspan\u003eLandscape \u0026amp; Garden Uses\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv\u003eGrowing 22 to 26 inches tall in bloom and equally as wide, Very Van Gogh Veronica is ideal for use as a vertical accent in small garden spaces or in groupings in larger spaces. It can also be grown in containers on or around patios and other outdoor seating and living spaces, where the flowers can be enjoyed up close. It is a fine addition to butterfly and pollinator gardens, mixed perennial gardens, cut-flower gardens, rock gardens, cottage gardens, and purple-themed gardens.\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv\u003e\u003cspan\u003eGrowing Preferences\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv\u003eVery Vann Gogh Veronica is easy to grow in moist, well-drained soil with average fertility and full sun to partial shade. For optimal flowering and overall performance, we recommend at least 6 hours of sunlight daily. Removing spent flower spikes can encourage additional bloom. It is tolerant of short dry periods when growing in the ground, but will appreciate an occasional deep soaking when temperatures are high and the weather is dry. It does not like constantly soggy or wet soils. \u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan\u003eHelpful Articles\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cdiv\u003ePlant as you would Salvia plants...\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv\u003e\u003cspan\u003eHow To Plant Perennial Salvia \u0026amp; Sage Plants\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv\u003e\u003cdiv\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cdiv\u003e\u003cspan\u003ePlant Long \u0026amp; Prosper!\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv\u003e\u003cspan\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cdiv\u003e\u003cspan\u003eMeet The Wilson Brothers \u0026amp; Staff\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cspan\u003eQuestions?\u003c\/span\u003e \u003cspan\u003eContact Us!\u003c\/span\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                               \u003c\/div\u003e","brand":"My Store","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":48148176994458,"sku":"D2LSC 486439909","price":26.58,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0751\/3263\/3242\/files\/veronica-longifolia-very-van-gogh-speedwell-2.jpg?v=1779976231","url":"https:\/\/plant.hcgardenus.com\/products\/perfectly-picasso-veronica-speedwell-1-gallon-pot","provider":"Royal Horticultural Society","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
