Variety traits

Verbena plant height

Verbena L.

Plant height is a defining morphological characteristic of Verbena, ranging from 15 cm in compact groundcover forms to 2 m in tall-growing species.

In the reference 68 varieties crop Vervain, where this is mentioned in the description.

The classification of Verbena by plant height divides plants into low-growing and compact (15–40 cm), represented by Verbena hybrida and Verbena canadensis, medium-growing (up to 50 cm), and tall-growing forms, such as Verbena bonariensis, which reaches 1.2–2 m in height.

Plant height directly influences the planting scheme: for compact varieties, the interval is approximately 20 cm, for creeping types — up to 35 cm, and for tall-growing ones — 30–40 cm. Agrotechnical management of the habit includes pinching shoots to stimulate branching and controlling nitrogen nutrition to prevent excessive stem elongation.
