{"product_id":"homestead-purple-verbena","title":"Homestead Purple Verbena","description":"\u003ch2\u003eVivid Purple Flowers on a Spreading Verbena\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eHomestead Purple Verbena is a vigorous, low-growing verbena loved for its rich purple flower clusters and spreading, trailing habit. This warm-season favorite brings bold color to sunny borders, hanging baskets, patio containers, slopes, retaining walls, and garden edges where a low, colorful plant can soften the landscape.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe flowers appear in rounded clusters above deep green foliage, creating a bright purple carpet throughout much of the growing season. In the right conditions, Homestead Purple can bloom from spring into fall, slowing only during periods of extreme heat or stress before rebounding with fresh color.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eA Long-Blooming Plant for Heat and Sunshine\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eHomestead Purple Verbena is at its best in full sun, where it produces the strongest flowering and densest growth. The plant’s trailing stems spread outward and can spill gracefully over container edges or move across open soil as a flowering groundcover.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis is a great choice for homeowners who want color that keeps going. The purple blooms are especially useful for tying together yellow, white, pink, orange, and silver foliage combinations. Use it near walkways, patios, mailbox beds, and entry plantings where the color can be enjoyed up close all season.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003ePerfect for Containers, Hanging Baskets, Slopes, and Edging\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eHomestead Purple Verbena is one of the most versatile plants for sunny designs. Use it as a container spiller, hanging basket plant, border edging perennial, slope cover, rock garden accent, or flowering groundcover. Its low habit makes it easy to tuck between taller perennials and shrubs without blocking views.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003ePair it with lantana, salvia, coreopsis, coneflower, Black Eyed Susan, yarrow, catmint, lavender, sedum, ornamental grasses, and trailing annuals for a heat-loving display. In containers, combine it with upright thrillers and mounding fillers to create a full, colorful arrangement.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003ePollinator Friendly, Heat Tolerant, and Drought Tolerant Once Established\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eHomestead Purple Verbena attracts butterflies, bees, and other beneficial pollinators with its nectar-rich flowers. The long bloom season makes it especially valuable in pollinator-friendly plantings where steady color and wildlife activity are both priorities.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eOnce established, this verbena has good heat and drought tolerance, but it still performs best with consistent watering in containers and during extended dry spells. It is also commonly considered deer-resistant, though deer browsing can vary by location and pressure. Good drainage is essential for keeping plants healthy.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eEasy Care with Full Sun and Well-Drained Soil\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003ePlant Homestead Purple Verbena in full sun with well-drained soil. Avoid heavy, wet, poorly drained areas, especially in winter, because soggy conditions can shorten the plant’s life. In colder regions, it may be used as a long-blooming annual even if it behaves as a perennial in warmer climates.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eWater regularly after planting until established, then water during dry spells as needed. Containers and hanging baskets dry out faster than in-ground plantings and may need more frequent watering. Trim lightly if growth becomes stretched or flowering slows, and feed container-grown plants lightly during the growing season to support continued bloom.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Garden Goods Direct","offers":[{"title":"1 Quart Pot \/ Single","offer_id":49011571294433,"sku":"xpj1788068589490","price":14.97,"currency_code":"BRL","in_stock":true},{"title":"1 Gallon Pot \/ Single","offer_id":49011571327201,"sku":"mwr1788068589491","price":19.29,"currency_code":"BRL","in_stock":true},{"title":"1 Gallon Pot \/ 3-Pack","offer_id":49011571359969,"sku":"mkk1788068589492","price":48.59,"currency_code":"BRL","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0758\/0221\/4625\/files\/homestead-purple-verbena_1.jpg?v=1788068595","url":"https:\/\/www.hazelandhollow.shop\/products\/homestead-purple-verbena","provider":"My Store","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
