Growing to heights of between 5 to 10 centimeters, the Verbena Lascar Purple is a relatively low-lying plant. Its trailing growth type allows it to spread along the ground, making it an ideal choice for hanging baskets, flower beds, or cascading over walls and edges.
The ovate or egg-shaped leaves of the Verbena Lascar Purple have a unique erose leaf margin, which gives them a slightly serrated or jagged edge. This adds to the visual interest of the plant, creating a textured and layered effect.
To thrive, the Verbena Lascar Purple requires sunny light conditions, ensuring it receives an adequate amount of sunlight each day. This will help promote healthy growth and vibrant flower production. Additionally, the plant has normal to moist moisture requirements, meaning it can tolerate a moderate amount of water. However, it is important to avoid overwatering, as this can lead to root rot and other issues.
The Verbena Lascar Purple is a relatively compact plant, with a leaf size ranging from 2 to 3 centimeters. This makes it suitable for smaller gardening spaces or container planting. Its compact size also makes it easy to care for and maintain.
