    Nursery contributed plant descriptions

    Rosie is a pink flowered selection of our native Verbena that was made by noted plantsman Greg Grant. Clusters of pink flowers are produced from late winter through spring on this low growing spreading evergreen perennial. An excellent plant for butterflies that begins flowering early in the season. Use it as a groundcover or allow it to spill from containers and raised gardens. We have to say thank you to Greg Grant for sharing this plant with us!
