Description



Our premium verbena seeds come with high germination rate and strong vitality, developing into spreading trailing perennial plants covered with dense clusters of small star-shaped flowers. Garden verbena is a highly popular landscaping flower praised for ultra-long flowering period and excellent stress resistance.
This variety features outstanding heat tolerance and moderate drought resistance, continuously blooming from late spring all the way to frost. The sprawling creeping branches cascade beautifully, making it perfect for hanging baskets, balcony containers, flower border edging, ground cover to suppress weeds and rock garden decoration. Mass tiny blossoms attract bees, butterflies and other beneficial pollinators, building a lively ecological garden. Verbena prefers full sunlight and loose well-drained soil, requiring only basic watering and occasional trimming, extremely suitable for planting beginners and large-scale greening projects.

Step-by-Step Planting Instructions for Verbena Seeds

  1. Soil Preparation: Select loose, breathable, well-drained potting soil or garden loam; avoid heavy clay soil prone to waterlogging.
  2. Sowing Method: Evenly scatter verbena seeds on the soil surface, cover with a very thin layer of substrate about 0.3cm thick, lightly press for full soil contact.
  3. Germination Control: Keep soil slightly moist without stagnant water, maintain temperature at 18–24°C, seeds germinate within 10–20 days.
  4. Seedling Management: Thin overcrowded seedlings for good air circulation; full sun exposure prevents leggy weak growth.
  5. Daily Care: Water moderately when topsoil dries; shear back overgrown stems after blooming to stimulate secondary flowering.
