Gentian Speedwell

With its captivating porcelain-blue blooms featuring dark veining, this pollinator-friendly perennial adds elegant vertical interest and season-long structure to gardens while naturally deterring deer and rabbits. The Gentian Speedwell forms dense, spreading mats of glossy dark green leaves that remain evergreen in mild climates, with flowering stems rising up to 20" tall to showcase spikes of the delicate cup-shaped flowers from late spring through early summer. Perfect for naturalizing along garden paths, anchoring the front of mixed borders or adding charm to vases and containers, this compact beauty thrives when planted in groups, creating stunning drifts of colour. The leaves grow in neat rosettes to form a robust ground cover, making it an excellent low-maintenance choice for gardeners.
