SANDPAPER VERBENA 1gal

If you want a splash of vibrant color that can handle the blistering Arizona sun without breaking a sweat, Sandpaper Verbena (Glandularia rigida) is a must-have for your landscape. This hardy perennial is a true workhorse, reaching a manageable 12 to 18 inches tall and spreading into a beautiful, rough-textured mat that keeps the ground cool. It thrives in full sun exposure, producing clusters of intense purple flowers that bloom relentlessly from spring right through the first frost. Its namesake "sandpaper" leaves aren't just for show; that coarse texture acts as a natural deterrent, making it a fantastic choice if you struggle with hungry visitors looking for a snack. It is the perfect solution for those hot, rocky slopes or as a border plant that needs very little "babying" once established in your backyard.
