Product description
This six pack of Verbena Quartz Mixed bedding plants is a variety with very pretty flower heads that are delicately formed with large umbels of beautiful florets over their dark green foliage with ovate to oblong leaves. They are exceptional performers which are noted for their uniformity and overall longer garden performance than competing varieties. They will look stunning planted in several groups in a border or you can plant them in pots or hanging baskets as they will gently trail over the edges. This mix will give a contrasting mixture of bright and vibrant colour from June-September.
Plant in well-drained soil and in full sun. Feed and water frequently throughout the summer to ensure an endless supply of flowers. Verbena flowers do not require dead heading.

Garden Plant Size Guide
Plants in larger pots can be multiple years older than their smaller counterparts with more mature root systems and foliage. This makes them able to thrive as a full size plant in your garden quicker than smaller alternatives.
The most common size of pot that garden plants come in are 9cm/1L/3L/5L this is in reference to the diameter at the top of the pot.
9cm potted plants still remain the most popular cost effective option though, they just may take a little patience to allow them to grow into full maturity once planted in your garden.

Top Tip
Deadhead spent flowers regularly to encourage a continuous flush of blooms. Feed fortnightly with a high-potash fertiliser to support extended flowering. Verbena are great for attracting pollinators and bring lasting colour to sunny garden spaces.
How to Water
Water regularly to keep the soil lightly moist, especially during dry spells. Verbena are moderately drought-tolerant once established but benefit from consistent moisture while actively growing and flowering. Ensure good drainage to prevent root problems.
How to Plant
Plant Verbena bedding plants in well-drained, fertile soil in full sun. These compact, spreading plants are perfect for borders, containers, or mixed displays, producing clusters of vibrant blooms that last through summer. Space plants 20–25cm apart to allow for healthy, bushy growth.
