Veronica thessalica
Joy Creek Photo Archive (c) all rights reserved
This modest but charming groundcover hales from northern Greece and Albania where it grows in open areas of scree and rocks. Veronica thessalica develops a woody base from which prostrate fleshy stems emerge. Rounded leaves grow in congested whorls up the stems in a manner reminiscent of many sedums. The leaves are fleshy and lightly serrated along their sides. Tiny cup-shaped flowers open in clusters at the terminal ends of the stems during the spring.
