Veronica spicata, commonly known as Spiked Speedwell, is a perennial plant in the family Plantaginaceae. It is native to Europe and Asia and is known for its attractive, spiky blue to purple flowers. This plant thrives in temperate climates and is often used in garden borders and rock gardens. It has a dormancy period during the winter months.
Veronica spicata requires bright, direct sunlight for optimal growth. It prefers moderate temperatures and average humidity levels. Water the plant when the soil partially dries out, and ensure it is planted in well-draining soil. Regular pruning helps maintain its shape and encourages more blooms.
تربة
This plant prefers loamy soil that is well-draining. It can tolerate a range of soil pH levels but thrives best in slightly acidic to neutral soil. Ensure the soil is not waterlogged to prevent root rot.
سماد
Use a balanced fertilizer with an N-P-K ratio of 10-10-10. Fertilize the plant during the growing season, typically in spring and summer, to promote healthy growth and flowering.
إعادة السمعة
Repot Veronica spicata every 2-3 years or when it outgrows its current container. Choose a pot that is slightly larger than the current one and ensure it has good drainage. Repotting is best done in early spring before the growing season begins.
