CARE GUIDE

How to keep Veronica Hectorii.

Water

Water Veronica hectorii every 3 to 4 days to keep the soil moist during its growth and flowering periods. During the winter, reduce watering as the plant enters dormancy. In early spring, prune any yellowed parts and then water the plant thoroughly to stimulate new growth.

Pruning

Veronica hectorii is known for its vibrant flowers and compact growth. To encourage fuller blooms, it's best to prune in early spring. During this time, remove any dead branches and last year's growth. This not only improves air circulation and reduces the risk of disease but also prepares the plant for a vigorous growing season.
