Latin Name: Verbena × hybrida ‘Superbena’Â
The Verbena ‘Superbena’ is a high-performance trailing perennial (often grown as an annual) prized for its massive flower clusters and disease resistance. Growing 6–12 inches (15–30 cm) tall with spreads up to 2–3 feet (60–90 cm), it’s ideal for hanging baskets, containers, and ground cover.
This Proven Winners® series features 2–3 inch (5–7.5 cm) dense flower heads in vibrant shades of purple, red, pink, and white, blooming spring to frost without deadheading. Unlike older verbenas, it resists powdery mildew and thrives in heat and humidity.
Thrives in full sun (6+ hours daily) and well-draining soil. Drought-tolerant once established but blooms best with weekly watering. Attracts butterflies and hummingbirds while resisting deer and rabbits.
Perfect for landscapes or patio displays, pair with calibrachoa, sweet potato vine, or dusty miller.
