How to keep Veronica Nummularia.
Light
Pyrenean speedwell is a sun-loving perennial herb that comes from open habitats and commonly thrives in meadows and grasslands. It prefers full sun but can also tolerate partial sun.
Temperature
Pyrenean speedwell is capable of adjusting to a broad range of temperatures, but its range can still be restricted by various combinations of moisture and heat. It performs best in warm summer climates with sufficient rainfall or watering. Extended periods of cloudy, rainy weather or prolonged high temperatures can raise the risk of Pyrenean speedwell dying. In winter, shielding the plant from cold can increase its survival rate.
Fertilizer
Generally, a single fertilizer application in spring is sufficient for Pyrenean speedwell, though several feedings can maximize growth. Fertilize about once every month to a month and a half. Feeding improves the leaves’ appearance and function, helping maintain even color and a healthy texture. It also promotes root development and nutrient uptake, supporting long-term plant health.
