The five petalled Verbena flowers are dainty and attractive. This one is in purple. I am told they are found in a few other colours too. They have these nicely divided leaves giving the plant a delicate look. Supposedly a no fuss plant they are ideal for ground cover. They are used extensively in buterfly gardening, since the flower is a favourite of the winged creature.
Botanical name: Glandularia pulchella Family: Verbenaceae (Verbena family)
