Verbena hybrida

Also known as Garden Verbena, Garden Vervain, Florist's Verbena

Garden verbena forms vibrant trailing or mounding clumps adorned with dense clusters of small, star-shaped flowers in rich shades of purple, pink, red, and white. Bred extensively from South American wild species, these tender perennials thrive in high heat and bloom continuously from late spring until the first winter freeze. Their fragrant, nectar-rich blossoms act as major magnets for butterflies, bees, and hummingbird moths in sunny urban landscapes.
