The flowers come in vibrant shades of red and bloom abundantly from spring to autumn, providing colour for much of the year.

It thrives in well-drained, moderately fertile soil, avoiding waterlogging, and tolerates heat and moderate drought. However, it cannot withstand prolonged frosts, making it ideal for mild and temperate climates.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eIt is highly versatile: it can be used as ground cover for slopes, borders, flower beds or difficult spaces, but it is also perfect for rock gardens, between paving, or in pots and planters to decorate terraces and balconies.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003ePLANTING AND MAINTENANCE\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe best time to plant Peruvian Verbena is early autumn. This allows you to make the most of the water provided by the approaching rainy season, although spring planting is equally suitable for harmonious plant growth. If you plant the lawn in spring, you will need to water it a little more during the first summer to support the plants as they establish.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eBy following our recommended planting density (10 plants per square metre), the Peruvian Verbena lawn will form a uniform cover within 8 to 12 months.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eDuring the establishment phase, the lawn will need to be watered infrequently but thoroughly. You should assess the \u003cstrong\u003ewatering requirements of Peruvian Verbena\u003c\/strong\u003e during this initial phase yourself, ensuring that the soil is completely dry at a depth of 8 to 10 cm.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eOnce the lawn is one year old, watering can be limited to once (or at most twice) a year. As for the \u003cstrong\u003emaintenance of Peruvian Verbena\u003c\/strong\u003e, we recommend mowing 2 to 6 times a year.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003ePERUVIAN VERBENA FOR SALE\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003ePeruvian Verbena is sold in trays of 60 cells. For optimal coverage, we recommend a density of 10 plants per square metre, so each tray is designed to cover 6 m².\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eYou can achieve the area you need by combining 6 m² trays and half trays of 3 m² (30 plants).
