This 1996 introduction from Dick and Judith Tyler of Pine Knot Farms is one of our favorite dwarf groundcovers...and that's saying a lot. From a seed packet of Veronica repens, Judith selected this bright gold seedling. The flat...read my lips...carpet of tiny gold leaves resembles baby tears instead of a veronica. We have used Veronica 'Sunshine' as a groundcover in both sun and light shade as long as the soil doesn't get too dry...great for brightening an area. Occasional tiny spikes of near white flowers adorn the mat...you will love it!
