Verbena, also known as Ironhard, is a beautiful, graceful plant known for its airy appearance and long-flowering ability. This plant comes into its own in the summer with its delicate lilac-purple flowers that sway in the wind on tall, thin stems. Verbena is a real asset to any garden lover who loves color and movement in the border.

Characteristics of the Verbena Ironhard can grow up to 1.5 meters high, and because of its slender growth it takes up little space, making it ideal for placing between other plants. The flowers attract many butterflies and bees, which makes the plant not only decorative, but also ecologically valuable. This strong plant flowers from June to October, which gives a long period of color.

Location and Care Verbena likes a sunny location and thrives best in well-drained, nutrient-rich soil. It can withstand drought and requires little maintenance.
