Veronica 'Georgia Blue' is a resilient and low-growing perennial with vibrant blue flowers and attractive foliage. It forms a dense cushion of small, rich-blue flowers adorned with pearly-white eyes, blooming from early to late spring and occasionally throughout the summer. Even when not in full bloom, the lush foliage of small lance-shaped leaves in deep green with a hint of bronze adds to its appeal. This outstanding groundcover offers long-lasting beauty and durability in the garden.
