Marsh speedwell
Veronica scutellata
Marsh speedwell is a delicate wetland perennial that requires consistently wet or boggy soil to thrive — it is ideal for pond margins, rain gardens, or bog features. It prefers full sun to partial shade and produces small, attractive blue flowers that support pollinators. Avoid dry conditions, as this plant does not tolerate drought at all.
