Verbena canadensis Homestead Purple Verbena
A showy perennial flowering from May through October with rich-purple blooms covering the plant. The dark green foliage creeps and covers quickly. Verbena prefers regular watering with well drained soil with good air circulation. Too much moisture and overcrowding can dampen its vigor. Can behave more like an annual or bi-annual when conditions are not right. Homestead Purple will tolerate periods of drought but prefers a good weekly watering for optimum performance and long term vigor. Prune anytime during the growing season. Once it is dormant, wait for Spring growth to appear before pruning hard.
