Give me tips for veronica royal candles winter care

My tips for your Veronica Royal Candles during the winter season: cut back, mulch (add a 2-3 inch layer of organic mulch), and most importantly, avoid excessive watering.

Pruning it in the winter can help prevent diseases and make your plant look nice for the winter. Make sure to water before the ground freezes and keep the roots moist during the winter. Use a frost cloth to shield the plant from winter.

It is better to reduce watering and ensure proper drainage to prevent rotting.😺

In fact, drainage is the most important because Veronica Royal Candles are susceptible to root rot if the soil is too wet and heavy, so you can amend it with compost or other organic matter.

My recommendation is to wait until the majority of the plant is dead before pruning. This will allow the plant to reabsorb nutrients from the leaves. Soggy soil can harm the roots of this plant, therefore overwatering can also be harmful.
