Verbena bonariensis is also known as Buenos Aires verbena, in tribute to its South American origins. It is a very common and widely used perennial plant: being easy to grow and highly ornamental, it is often used to add colour and lightness to a perennial border.

Verbena bonariensis grows on long, rigid stems with crinkled green foliage. The foliage is not particularly dense, giving the plant a light and airy appearance. In spring and autumn, Verbena bonariensis flowers appear: they are tiny, very pretty light purple florets clustered in dome-shaped inflorescences about 4/5 cm in diameter. These nectar-rich flowers are highly popular with butterflies and pollinating insects.

Verbena bonariensis grows on long, rigid stems with crinkled green foliage. The foliage is not particularly dense, giving the plant a light and airy appearance. In spring and autumn, the flowers of Verbena bonariensis appear: these are tiny, very pretty light purple flowers, gathered in umbrella-shaped flower heads about 4/5 cm in diameter. These nectar-rich flowers are highly prized by butterflies and pollinating insects.

This species of Verbena loves full sun and well-drained soils. If grown in the milder areas of our country, its foliage will be semi-evergreen in winter; otherwise, it will be completely deciduous. It can be grown both in the ground and in pots, but in the latter case, you will need to take particular care to move it to a sheltered location when winter arrives.

Verbena bonariensis is the perfect plant for creating flowerbeds with a subtle sense of verticality. To maximize this effect, you can opt for good combinations for Verbena bonariensis, such as with the golden tufts of Stipa tenuissima, the soft spikes of Pennisetum setaceum, or other ornamental grasses.

In spring and autumn, from May to October, small light purple flowers appear, gathered in dome-shaped flower heads about 4-5 cm across. Rich in nectar, they are highly popular with butterflies and pollinators.

Easy-to-grow perennial that loves full sun and well-drained soils. The foliage is semi-evergreen in milder areas, otherwise deciduous. It can be grown in the ground or in a pot, moving it to shelter in winter due to its cold hardiness down to around -5°C.

It pairs beautifully with the golden tufts of Stipa tenuissima and the soft plumes of Pennisetum setaceum, or with other ornamental grasses, to create beds rich in verticality.

WHAT MAKES OUR PLANTS DIFFERENT

Long anti-spiraling vases

A traditional lawn is a fragile monoculture: it drinks thousands of liters of water every summer, needs mowing every week, and turns yellow as soon as you neglect it. An alternative lawn turns this logic on its head: instead of grasses, we use Mediterranean groundcovers selected in our nursery—low, dense, and hardy plants, born for hot and dry climates.

The result is a green, walkable carpet that blooms for months, withstands drought, salt spray, and frost, and reduces watering and maintenance by 80%. It is not an aesthetic compromise: it is a more beautiful, more vibrant lawn that is more honest with the environment.
