Verbena tenuisecta (Moss Verbena) Seeds

Verbena tenuisecta, commonly known as Moss Verbena, is a low-growing, spreading perennial prized for its finely cut foliage and vibrant purple blooms. Native to South America and well adapted to hot, dry climates, this plant forms a dense, carpet-like groundcover that thrives where many ornamentals struggle.

Moss Verbena produces masses of small, fragrant flowers from spring through summer, attracting bees, butterflies, and other pollinators. Its drought tolerance and heat resistance make it an excellent choice for desert landscapes, xeriscaping, rock gardens, borders, and containers.

Once established, Verbena tenuisecta requires minimal water and maintenance, making it ideal for low-input gardens.
