| Botanical Name | Verbena canadensis 'Homestead Purple' |
| Description | A legendary perennial groundcover known for its carpets of rich purple blooms. It is exceptionally resilient in Houston's intense summer heat. While adaptable to various soils, it must have excellent drainage to survive our wet winters; it will quickly decline in heavy, saturated clay. |
| Exposure | Full Sun (Required for maximum bloom and disease resistance) |
| Height x Width | 6-10" Height x 2-3' Width |
| Water | Moderate; drought-tolerant once established, but blooms best with regular moisture. Avoid overhead watering to prevent mildew. |
| Zones | 6 - 9 |
| Fertilization | Apply a balanced, slow-release fertilizer in early spring and mid-summer to fuel continuous blooming. |
| Pruning | Lightly shear back after a heavy bloom cycle to encourage fresh growth and new flower buds. |
| Deer Resistance | High |
