How to keep Veronica Undulata.
Light
Undulate speedwell comes from well-lit, open habitats and does best in full sun. It can tolerate partial sun but prefers direct sunlight for the best growth. This plant, which can be annual or biennial, is known for its sun-loving character.
Temperature
Undulate speedwell can adjust to a broad range of temperature conditions, but its distribution may still be restricted by different combinations of moisture and heat. It grows best in warm summer climates with sufficient rainfall or watering. Extended spells of cloudy, rainy weather or prolonged high temperatures raise the chance of Undulate speedwell dying. During winter, shielding the plant from cold can boost its survival rate.
Fertilizer
Once Undulate speedwell has opened most of its blooms to full size, resume fertilizing. Around the peak of flowering, apply fertilizer every three to four weeks, as weather permits. Then, when Undulate speedwell begins producing fewer new blooms, stop fertilizing; there's no need to feed the plant when it can no longer produce additional flowers.
