Verbena Sissinghurst

Tons of color on one of the most heat-tolerant Verbenas. Sissinghurst can handle being planted beside an asphalt driveway… in July! Now that is heat tolerance! It is a fine, low growing ground cover with so many heads of rich rose-pink blooms that you can barely see the foliage from early summer until frost! In a single season one plant spreads into a 4-foot mat in our garden.

Verbenas are superb ground covers remarkable for their dazzling, extravagant color, extraordinarily long season, and superior performance even in hot, exposed locations and poor, dry soils. Available in a range of brilliant hues, they maintain a low, spreading habit that chokes out weeds in any well-drained soil. That same habit makes them a unique choice for hanging baskets and containers. Heat- and drought-tolerant, Verbenas are best grown in full sun and therefore are very easy to grow. Zones 6-10
