A drought-resistant variety that does well during the long days of summer, the Verbena flower mix is ideal for a blooming garden and requires little care. Also commonly known as the Tears of Isis, Verbena is becoming a popular bloom of choice across gardens since it requires very little care and is not very demanding when it comes to the soil it is being grown in. The shape of the bloom resembles somewhat of a primrose which can last all through the season with regular pruning and trimming. Although Verbena can grow in poor soils, there may be some issues with flowering. Hence it is best to apply a slow-release fertilizer like poultry manure or kitchen waste compost to promote flowering.
Planting instructions
Soil should be collected in a garden pot mixed with well rotten cow dung or manure.
Broadcast the seeds over the soil bed and cover it with a thin layer of sieved sand to allow germination.
Maintain a distance of 1.0 feet between the plants.
Sprinkle little water and then as per requirement keeping the soil moist.
Flowering starts after 45-50 days post transplant which continues for 100-120 days depending on the variety.

Sandy loamy soil with pH 5.6 to 6.5 is ideal for its cultivation.

watering

how to harvest

Irrigation of soil with water,before plucking, gives better flower quality. Also, plucking of flowers regularly and removal of dried flowers enhances the yield.
