Verbena venosa, also known as Verbena rigida, is a perennial ornamental shrub native to South America.

Verbena rigida grows in low clumps of rough, spiny, and toothed leaves that form a vigorously growing groundcover. In spring and autumn, the Verbena rigida flowers emerge: they are tiny, very pretty, deep purple flowers clustered in dome-shaped inflorescences about 5 cm in diameter. These flowers are rich in nectar and therefore highly attractive to butterflies.

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.

In spring and autumn, small flowers of a deep purple colour appear, clustered in dome-shaped flower heads rich in nectar and highly popular with butterflies.

Likes exposure in full sun and well-drained soils. In milder areas the foliage is semi-evergreen, otherwise deciduous. Can be grown in the ground or in a pot (in this case it must be protected in winter); it is hardy down to around -10°C.

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.
