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.
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.
