Verbena

Verbena
Verbena is that no-muss, no-fuss annual with
the deep green leaves and delicately domed
blossoms - and a reputation for being almost virtually carefree.

Heat and drought tolerant, verbena is as easy to find
in local greenhouses as it is to sow directly from seed.

At home in rock gardens or as edging, verbena's small
size also make it a favorite for planting in hanging baskets
and window boxes, where it will bloom continuously with
just a little help - pinch back dead blossoms as often as
they appear to keep verbena flowering throughout the summer...
