Verbena Ground Cover

The name, Verbena, means "sacred foliage". Commonly called Vervain, some have potent medicinal properties, and are associated with the supernatural.

Growth height varies. Low-profile species are excellent for ground cover, rock gardens, container gardens, hanging baskets and terraces. Taller species are excellent for perennial gardens, cutting and flower-arranging. Verbena attracts butterflies, too.
