This has been my experience with Goodness Grows as well, Val.
While I would certainly encourage people to try different species and
cultivars of veronicas, I have a half dozen of these (just checked the tag
this morning before the snow got too deep again to make sure) and they have
been remarkably trouble free and if I remember to deadhead, they will bloom
for quite a while. Perhaps whatever disease is causing problems for others
is just not present in my garden, or it may be dependant on soil and weather
conditions.
