lavender-purple flat blooms on ornamental stems.

Long flowering sprays of fragrant flowers with airy purple blooms swaying on ornamental stalks.  Verbena bonariensis has tall, narrow, sparsely-leafed stems on top of which flattened heads of bright lavender-purple flowers appear in late-summer. It’s perfect for bringing height to an ornamental border and also works well in prairie-style planting schemes with ornamental grasses. It’s a superb butterfly plant, rivalling even buddleja.

why it's special:

  • Attracts pollinators to your garden.
  • Adds height to front borders without feeling bushy.
  • Long-lasting flowers throughout the summer season.
