Description

Soil:

Spike speedwell is easily grown in average, medium-moisture, well-drained soil. Rich organic matter can be added to the soil to improve overall performance.

Light:

This perennial grows best in full sun (> 6 hours sun) or part sun (4-6 hours sun), with improved flower performance in full sun.

Water:

Spike speedwell has fairly average water needs. The best performance occurs with consistent, regular moisture and sharp soil drainage (particularly in winter).

Fertilizing:

Feed your spike speedwell plants with a general-purpose slow-release fertilizer before new growth begins in spring.

Winterizing:

Cut back to basal growth in late autumn.

Maintenance & Pruning:

Removing faded blooms encourages the flower spires to rebloom. Cutting back faded spikes to the new growth at their base improves their appearance.

Most disappointing purchase EVER

I am completely heartbroken by the small, underdeveloped, wimpy plants that I received. I order 9 plants. All 9 plants were scrawny, short, and lacking any blooms. Based on other reviewers, I thought i would receive fully developed healthy plants. I regret not buying these plants from a big box store. I see them in every garden center or box store. The ones in the garden centers are big, beautiful and full of blooms. I've had mine planted for 2 weeks. They haven't grown. I still don't have a single bloom. They are absolutely disappointing. And the make matters worse - - I paid 30% more than what they are charging in local store. I will never make this mistake again. I am thoroughly disappointed. I makes me want to cry every time i look at my garden.

We’re sorry you’re not satisfied with our prices! Unfortunately, it’s not always easy (or cheap) to grow great plants. Our prices reflect the quality and care we put into each plant, plus the availability of unique selections that can’t often be found in garden centers. To save on your order, watch for different sales and promos throughout the season. On each product page and our plant sizes page, we note that all of our plants are young. The size of our plants varies depending on the time of year and whether they were recently trimmed. The most important thing when purchasing plants, online or in garden centers, is a full and robust root system, which we prioritize. Trimming only encourages stronger root development! If you have an issue with your order, please reach out to claims@greatgardenplants.com to start the claims process - your order is covered by our 60-day guarantee! We appreciate your feedback and look forward to helping!
