Red Fox Speedwell (Veronica spicata ‘Red Fox’)

Red Fox Speedwell (Veronica spicata ‘Red Fox’) is a compact perennial prized for its rosy-pink flower spikes and neat upright growth habit. Blooming from early to midsummer, this veronica adds soft colour and vertical structure to borders, cottage gardens, and pollinator-friendly landscapes.

The dense flower spikes rise above tidy green foliage and attract bees, butterflies, and other beneficial pollinators. Its compact size makes it especially useful for smaller gardens, edging, and container arrangements where long-lasting colour and manageable growth are desired.

In Alberta, Red Fox Speedwell thrives in full sun with well-drained soil. It is cold-hardy and drought-tolerant once established, making it well-suited to Prairie landscapes and low-maintenance perennial gardens.
