| Veronicastrum 'Lavender Towers' in the Hill Garden this week with Echinacea purpurea. |

What is nice about this plant in my garden is that it takes up surprisingly little horizontal space. I stuck it in a small hole with the rest of these perennials and it seems to be dealing well with it... unlike the Russian sage that is also in this garden. Some plants just deal better with tight planting for succession than others.
Have a beautiful weekend!
Stay cool!

I just love Veronicastrum...they are so very elegant!
ReplyDeleteI grow a couople of Veronicastrum - loved by the bees and such a good doer in my garden!
ReplyDeleteI can't believe I just posted about Veronicastrum 'Inspiration'. These are a lot more upright than mine. Very happy with them, anyway, but I like these quite a bit. It would be great to grow the two varieties together.
ReplyDeleteI love these and am hopeful mine will show up next year after planting a few roots this year.
ReplyDeleteSuper plant, must get some for my side border, it would fit in nicely.
