Verbena flowers are known for their long-lasting display of small, vibrant blooms clustered together. They come in a wide range of colors, including shades of purple, pink, red, blue, and white, often with a delicate, somewhat airy appearance. The plants can be low-growing and spreading, ideal for ground cover or trailing from containers, or more upright, reaching various heights depending on the species and variety. Their leaves are typically lance-shaped and toothed. Verbenas are popular for attracting butterflies and other pollinators, and many varieties are heat and drought-tolerant, making them a cheerful and resilient addition to gardens and landscapes.
