In the 1970s I started growing various kinds of alpines and other flowers suitable for a rock garden or along a flower border.
Veronica (
V. longifolia) was but one of them.
Campanula latifolia was another. This is a series of photos (
all Veronica) taken in 1977 (
London,
Ontario) in the back garden. I later moved the alpines to another flower bed in the front yard. I had ordered a few seed packets from a seed house that contained mixed alpines and veronica was one of those included in the mixture. There were still some of these flowers growing in the garden when I sold the house in 2005. As you can see, the bees loved them! - V
