Verbena rigida
Height x Spread: 50cm x 60cm
Commonly known as the Hardy Garden Verbena, Verbena rigida is a perennial, however, it is often grown as an annual. On branched stems with green oblong leaves, clusters of purple, fragrant flowers appear throughout the summer months.
This Verbena will be extremely happy in any soil, providing the it's not waterlogged; it does require a sunny spot though, making it perfect for south facing borders. Great for edging pathways, Verbena rigida will self-seed freely so if you wish to avoid this, ensure you remove the spent flowerheads.
Available for Mail Order from April - August
