All verbenas propagate easily from cuttings and most of them from seed with the exception of the hybrid Verbena macdougalii ‘Lavender Spires’, which is sterile.The Monarch Gardener donates a portion of all sales to monarch and conservation groups. If observed in its infancy, a seaweed feed will usually cure it. This genus has few problems, the only one that I have occasionally seen is powdery mildew in very dry seasons. The seedheads provide shelter and food for many insects and seed for birds. In spring they are best cut down to strong basal shoots but the silhouettes can look effective throughout the winter, rimmed with hoar frost or decorated with spider’s webs in the autumn. The hardier North American species will tolerate a much wider range of conditions and are perfectly happy in most borders as long as they are not waterlogged in winter. This will ensure good sturdy growth and the removal of apical tips around mid-May will encourage further branching, slightly shorter growth and more flowers through the season.Īlternatively, use one of the shorter cultivars, such as Verbena ‘Lollipop’ or Verbena ‘Little One’, which are 75cm and 60cm in height respectively, although to my mind they lose some of the grace and elegance of the species. Verbena bonariensis is best cut down by two thirds at the end of the season to prevent wind rock and in the spring cut down further to a pair of strong shoots near the base of the plant. Colonies can be kept in check easily by lifting these shallow-rooted subterranean stems, which can be used to propagate plants or composted.
Verbena rigida and its cultivars die down at the end of the growing season and reappear in spring through spreading underground rhizomes. Young seedlings are easy to weed out to allow remaining plants to have the space to grow well without too much competition. They work well in gravel gardens and will seed with abandon on a pea-shingle drive or path.
