Plant Information
Plant Care
Red Fox Spiked Speedwell is a low-maintenance perennial that thrives with minimal care. Regular deadheading of spent blooms encourages continuous flowering and prevents self-seeding. Cut back stems to the ground in late fall or early spring. Apply a balanced fertilizer in early spring and mulch around the plant to retain moisture and suppress weeds. Division is recommended every 3-4 years to maintain plant vigor.
Planting Instructions
Plant in spring or early fall, spacing plants 30-45 cm apart. Dig a hole twice the width of the root ball and at the same depth. Remove the plant from its container and gently loosen the roots. Place in the hole, ensuring the crown is level with the soil surface. Backfill with soil, firm gently, and water thoroughly. Apply a 5 cm layer of mulch around the plant, keeping it away from the crown to prevent rot.
