The new Verbena Drums® series presents very compact, very early flowering plants that are perfect for containers.
Verbena bonariensis is a popular plant that has been improved with the variety 'Lollipop' to make the plant much more compact. The attractive clusters of bright purple flowers are just the same but with shorter stems so they are more concentrated for a fuller effect. These improvements make Verbena 'Lollipop' the perfect size for growing in patio pots, beds and borders and you'll enjoy the flowers from July until October along with any passing butterflies and bees that are hungry for nectar. Height and spread: 60cm (24).
Verbena are a really good little filler plant, their masses of small delicate pink, red, purple and white flowers, each with a small white eye, seemingly smother any gaps in baskets, pots, tubs and borders. Quartz F1 series has exceptional resistance to mildew, so is easy and trouble free, and performs well in hot and drought conditions too. Thriving in full hot sun, it also tolerates our more inevitable rain well too. Use dotted into mixed plantings with petunias, geraniums and busy lizzies, for a huge colour impact in Summer plantings. Supplied as 40 Pro Plug Plants, ready to grow on before planting out.

A tall, award-winning perennial with erect, branching stems, Verbena bonariensis is a well-loved garden plant deserving a place in every garden so long as there is border space to plant it.
