creeping speedwell

Creeping speedwell (Veronica repens 'Sunshine') requires moist, well-draining soil. Water the plant deeply about once a week during the hot summer months, and reduce your watering frequency in the cooler months. Make sure the soil remains evenly moist throughout the growing season but don't overwater; any standing water should be removed promptly. When watering, concentrate on the soil throughout the plant's roots and avoid wetting the foliage. If the foliage of the speedwell does get wet during waterings, be sure to dry it off with a soft cloth to prevent fungal diseases.

Creeping speedwell (Veronica repens 'Sunshine') requires full sun for at least 8 hours a day to remain healthy and to grow properly. The best time for sunlight is between mid-morning and late afternoon when the sun is at its highest. This will give the plant enough intensity and duration of light to support its growth. Creeping speedwell also prefers some light shade in the hottest part of the day to reduce stress on the plant and to prevent leaf burn.

Creeping speedwell (Veronica repens 'Sunshine') should be pruned in order to maintain a nice shape and size. Pruning should be done in early spring, as soon as new growth appears. Prune off any dead or diseased stems and branches. Trim back the stems to the desired height and shape. This may range from an inch to 6 inches, depending on how tall you would like the plant to be. You can also remove non-flowering branches at any point during the season. Be careful not to over-prune the plant, as it may not produce new stems or flowers.
