More Information

Description Pink wands of flowers create a powerhouse performance in your perennial garden. Magic Show® Pink Potion veronica (Veronica hybrid) brings a vertical accent to your garden or a splash of great color to containers.  This deer-resistant veronica is a mound-forming perennial with broad lance-shaped green leaves that stay handsome throughout the season. This easy to grow perennial puts on quite the performance! Plants produce densely packed spikes resulting in an incredible, almost magical show of baby pink, lasting from summer-fall. The tapered and plump long-lasting spikes of Pink Potion are truly an improvement over older varieties of Veronica, which are not as colorful or as dense in habit. Try planting this beauty in containers or in the front of your perennial garden for a stunning display that both you and pollinators will enjoy! Details Botanical name: Veronica x 'Pink Potion'

Fertilizing: Feed with a general-purpose slow-release fertilizer before new growth begins in spring.

Great flowers and plants

I had a few plants that didn't make it and Great Plants offer a 60 refund. I contacted CSR and without hesitation, they replaced my plants. They're growing and thriving and I couldn't be happier. I will only buy from Great Garden Plants.

Green thumb

Disappointed in both the sensational lavender and praire fountain.planted in ideal locations with every opportunity to thrive, but still waiting. Lavender is dying off and the grass has not grown at all. The weather has been ideal.

Is not doing well.

Thought it was full hot sun. But it is just not growing. It's not dead so maybe I can still move it.

Hello! Thank you for your feedback. This speedwell is a full sun plant and will flower best in conditions of 6+ hours of sunlight a day. We've been noticing a lot of gardeners not keeping their plants well watered. We recommend checking the soil daily. If the plant becomes stressed from too little, or too much, water, it can severely limit root growth. Soil should be nicely moist but never wet or soggy nor powdery and dry. All newly planted shrubs, trees, and perennials need regular watering for their first season. Pay particular attention during hot, dry weather.

While you may not see the plant growing above ground, a lot is happening below the surface. When transplanting young plants from a nursery pot to a garden, the plant allocates more energy to root development instead of shoot development (above ground). It's important for them to develop a robust root system so they can actually absorb the nutrients and water in the soil around them. Then after their root system is more developed they'll invest in their shoots and flower development.

Happy Gardening!
