Notes
'Superbena Sparkling Ruby' hillside vervain (Verbena 'Superbena Sparkling Ruby') is an annual for containers, borders, and ground cover. 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. Ruby red flowers open from spring through autumn. Butterflies, hummingbirds, and bees visit them. It sits low on the menu for deer.
Pairs well with Supertunia Vista Bubblegum petunia, Blonde Ambition blue grama, and Little Beauty tulip.
