Waterperry Blue Veronica is a creeping evergreen perennial that forms a dense carpet of tiny rich green foliage with a ting of burgundy. Abundant tiny dark-veined lavender blue flowers bloom in late spring, and may rebloom intermittently throughout the summer. Grows best in full sun and moist well-drained soils. Tolerates light foot traffic, and is salt and deer tolerant.
