Growing Verbena

Thrives in full sun in any well-drained soil. If happy, it self seeds around the place to create a purple haze and most people leave the stalks in place during winter both for some interest and to let the seeds spread naturally.

It may not be fully hardy in a cold winter in more northerly situations, where it can be treated as a self-seeding annual.

In Your Garden Design

Verbena bonariensis has become a stalwart of the garden in recent years, both in cottage-style borders and more formal schemes. Producing a lovely, butterfly-attracting haze of violet flowers on slender stems, it can be used to produce height without bulk and works well as a fantastic companion plant. Pair with the likes of Rudbeckia 'Goldsturm', cosmos, Japanese anemone, the lovely salvia May Night and Nicotiana sylvestris.

Did You Know?

This South American species is named after Buenos Aires. The European Vervain is Verbena officinalis.
