Veronica chamaedrys

Veronica chamaedrys (Germander Speedwell) is a species of Veronica, native to Europe and northern Asia. It is a herbaceous perennial plant growing to 25 cm tall, with hairy stems and leaves. The flowers are blue, with a four-lobed corolla. The form of the leaves are similar to white deadnettle. It can grow to 25 cm tall, but is normally about 12 cm tall.
