Comments (2)Hi Chris: I grow these. They clump quickly (a year) and will also multiply really nicely underground for you. Here they tend to bloom mainly in cooler weather...soon again now, and in the spring, so you should get a really nice long season on bloom on them for you. All except if you get a really warm extended spell in the summer. They can take daytime heat and still flower if nights are cooler. Nice choice and a good price!!

Comments (11)Just happened to find this post while doing a search for Veronica SBB... I had some Veronica at our previous home - it was the pink kind. It did so beautifully for a few years, then just petered out. I thought maybe it needed to be divided, so I did that, but it didn't help. Do you think they really do just have a short lifespan? I saw some gorgeous SBB at Home Depot today, and was debating on whether to get some for our new house. :) Is it typically in bloom this time of year, then? My pink bloomed earlier than this. I'm looking for a variety that will bloom around this time....See MoreBest Veronica - Blue
Comments (1)mad about suds, I have grown Veronica 'Sunny Border Blue' and it is a sweet little plant but it does have a short bloom time ...three weeks at the most and the after flowering foliage is so-so.
