Glad that you like Verbenas too.<br /><br />Jamie - I saw your Pentas cuttings in your blog. Im confident that they will grow. Do water them well & keep them in the shade first until they put out new leaves.James Davidhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01423981835876393119noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6901937196017931930.post-40705435621146834782009-10-16T22:56:00.879+08:002009-10-16T22:56:00.879+08:00Your Verbena hybrid is so pretty!

I would have thought it's family to Pentas too and leaves like Lantana.<br />Thanks so much for your propagating Pentas tips :) - will quickly plant some cuttings before the last shrub dies.Jaime Boeyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02457448435482175971noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6901937196017931930.post-84357965887505075702009-10-16T20:10:21.891+08:002009-10-16T20:10:21.891+08:00Hi James, I've read all of your 'future...Hi James, I've read all of your 'future' posts but have worked my way back to this one. I love verbena and this is a most interesting looking one. I love the 2-tone shades of it. I'm glad it's possible for it to self-seed. You will enjoy having more of these.Janhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12844013803699228989noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6901937196017931930.post-86410404638843369552009-10-16T16:45:15.470+08:002009-10-16T16:45:15.470+08:00Thanks Noelle for the Verbena tips. very much appr...Thanks Noelle for the Verbena tips. very much appreciated.James Davidhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01423981835876393119noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6901937196017931930.post-79162649724804092222009-10-16T14:16:18.676+08:002009-10-16T14:16:18.676+08:00Hello Again,

I do not fertilize mine as they flower very well without adding anything to the soil. Verbena produce a lot of flowers, but they are a short-lived perennial. I have had luck with my Verbena self-seeding.<br /><br />I hope this helps!Noelle Johnson https://www.blogger.com/profile/12198931083102476324noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6901937196017931930.post-29467295409345117942009-10-16T02:42:49.997+08:002009-10-16T02:42:49.997+08:00Hello James,

I like this plant as well but their condition is often not so ideal when I see them. Happy gardening!Stephaniehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05867061279916535777noreply@blogger.com
