I am pretty sure they are veronica – also called speedwell. Probably “Sunny Border Blue” which is probably the most commonly sold blue. Deadhead them when the spikes die back and they will rebloom for you.

Look up Veronica spicata and see if they look like your flowers. That came to my mind as soon as I saw them.

I don’t know what they are either , but I have some in my new yard. If you find out what they are let me know, because I just love them.

No clue what they are, but they certainly are pretty! One of my favorite colors. :smile:

And, yes, they’d have looked lovely in your Zen garden.

You gotta let us know what it is when you find out!

It does look so familiar.

I wish I could tell you what it is. I have no idea.
But I think it definitely should be in YOUR zen garden!
