'Red Fox' is a choice compact Speedwell that is bound to become a garden staple. This selection grows into a full mound of lance shaped medium green leaves. Densely flowered spires of starry fuchsia pink blooms appear in early summer, often lasting for over five weeks. These flowers are extremely popular with bees, butterflies, and hummingbirds. They make excellent cut flowers as well. 'Red Fox' may also be encountered under its original German name, "Rotfuchs"
