Verbena bonariensis 'Meteor Shower®'

Verbena

Plant Type: Annual

'Meteor Shower' is a variety of Verbena with a tall, upright form and thin, dark green lance-shaped leaves that are slightly wavy at the edges. Its clusters of electric purple flowers are a hit with pollinators! It is a vigorous grower with a dense branching habit. Its talller stature makes it an excellent choice for use in the back of beds and borders, groupings, or in cottage or pollinator gardens for a meadow-plant effect. It is also heat and drought tolerant and will continue to bloom throughout the season with no deadheading required.
