Latin Name: Veronica Officinalis L.

Origin Country: Poland

Veronica officinalis, commonly known as speedwell or common gypsyweed, is a perennial herbaceous plant belonging to the Plantaginaceae family. Native to Europe and western Asia, it thrives in dry grasslands, woodlands, and heathlands. It is also a popular plant in folklore and gardening for its hardiness and attractive blooms. Their mild, slightly bitter taste makes them a common ingredient in herbal remedies.
