Diggers Speedwell Peninsula Blue 140MM

I am a charming and highly ornamental native perennial known commonly as Digger's Speedwell. My most striking feature is my beautiful blue-grey, rounded foliage - the stems appear to pass straight through my leaves, giving me a wonderfully unusual and architectural look that sets me apart in any garden. In spring and early summer I produce clusters of bright blue flowers that dance above my foliage and attract butterflies and bees. My low and slightly weeping habit makes me ideal for rockeries, cottage gardens, pots, or softening the edges of garden beds and pathways. Hardy and adaptable, I perform well in full sun to part shade in a free-draining soil. Once established I have good drought tolerance, though I appreciate occasional watering through dry summers. Trim me back after flowering to keep me compact and encourage fresh new growth and a repeat flush of flowers.
