Meteor Shower® Verbena | Proven Winners®

Soft lilac flower clusters held on thin, upright stems above deep green foliage.

Meteor Shower® Verbena is a sun-tolerant annual grown for its airy structure and long-lasting blooms, bringing height and movement to containers and garden beds without feeling dense or heavy.

What You'll Use It For

• Adding height without blocking lower plants
• Creating an airy, layered look in containers
• Filling borders with light, vertical structure
• Mixing into pollinator-friendly plantings
• Softening heavier or more compact combinations

Why Lazy Leaf Loves It

The soft lilac blooms sit above the foliage on thin stems, so the plant adds height without crowding what's around it. It keeps blooming without deadheading and doesn't reseed aggressively, making it easier to manage than typical verbena while still handling heat and dry conditions.
