Notes

'Superbena Pink Shades' hillside vervain (Verbena 'Superbena Pink Shades') is an annual for borders, containers, cottage gardens, and pollinator gardens. It shrugs off cool spells and light frost, though a hard freeze will damage it. This plant likes full or part sun and average to moist soil of most types. Butterflies, hummingbirds, and bees visit the flowers, and the plant tolerates drought. Deer tend to browse other plants first. It spreads 12 to 36 inches wide, so give it room.

Pairs well with Supertunia Vista Bubblegum petunia, Sedge, Pyrethrum, and Nodding onion.
