Growing conditions
โ๏ธ Lighting
Full sun - essential! Minimum 6-8 hours a day. Shade - poor flowering and plant lengthens. Verbena loves heat and sun! Perfect for a south or west orientation.
๐ง Irrigation
Average - let dry slightly between waterings. Water when the top 2-3 cm is dry. Drought tolerant after establishment! Sensitive to overwatering - good drainage essential.
๐ฑ Earth
Well drained! Prefers sandy or loamy soil. Slightly acidic to neutral pH (6.0-7.0). Does not tolerate heavy or wet soil - will cause root rot.
๐ก๏ธ Temperature
Loves heat! Does not tolerate frost. In Israel - grows as an annual in most areas, or a short-lived perennial in warm areas. Plant after all danger of frost has passed.
Common problems and solutions
๐ธ Little flowering / plant lengthens
Lack of sun! Verbena needs a minimum of 6-8 hours of sun per day. Move to a sunnier location. The plant will recover and bloom again.
๐ Root rot / wilting
Overwatering or poor drainage! Verbena does not tolerate wet soil. Improve drainage, reduce watering, let the soil dry out.
๐ฆ Powdery Mildew
White powder on the leaves. Caused by shade, high humidity or distress. Improve ventilation, do not wet the leaves , move to the sun.
