The Tale: Veronica peduncularis Georgia Blue
\nThe genus name honors Saint Veronica who reportedly gave a handkerchief to Jesus so he could wipe sweat from his face on the way to Calvar. \n \nSome of the plants in the genus bear markings that (may or may not) resemble the markings on the sacred handkerchief. \n \n
