Neighbors in Tyringham and freind in Great Barrington, MA, call this "goose neck" or "mare's tail," but these names do not fetch to "Veronica" so I assume the term is a localism. It grows figorously and can be invasive. Indifferent to most soils; hardy to 0 degrees F and colder; sun/part sun; upright stem but flower crooks over at the top. White blossom all the time. Please advise if you have other ID for this plant
