I am a
Master Gardener from Kosciusko County Indiana and have
not been able to get anyone to identify this. I have
been told it is a veronica. It is like a small bush,
leaves are sort of shiny green. The flowers are hot
pink like bottlebrushes. It is so far hearty here in
zone 5, although the last few winters have not been
especially cold.
