Reseeds itself readily - a welcome volunteer! Also called tall or purple top verbena, purpletop vervain and South American Verbena.

    This is an excellent perennial here in north Texas. I cut back in the spring and if they get too leggy I cut them back again. Tolerates being moved with plenty of soil attached. Butterflies love it. Very pretty

    Seeds came well packaged, can't give 5 stars until I see the germination rates

    Brazilian vervain was new to me, as was gardening from seed in general. Took a while to really grow in size, but when it did, there was a bounty of tall stems topped with beautiful, delicate flowers. And the sparse foliage made it a great flower for cutting and throwing into bouquets for myself, family and friends. (Seen here with calendula.)

    Everyone who saw the flowers were delighted by them. I may be growing this flower every year from now on!
