'Lollipop' gives you that same effect, with the same dense clusters of lavender-violet flowers, in a compact version perfectly suited to pots and smaller spaces. And it flowers from early summer right through to autumn without much encouragement.\u003c\/p\u003e \n\u003cp\u003eNative to South America, from Brazil down to Argentina, Verbena bonariensis is a wildlife magnet as bees and butterflies find it completely irresistible. 'Lollipop' sits at around 55cm, making it easy to manage in a container or at the front of a border while still delivering the full flowering effect of the species.\u003c\/p\u003e \n\u003cp\u003eGrow in full sun in well-drained soil. Deadheading is not essential but prolongs the season. In autumn, resist the urge to cut it back hard. Leave the stems in place over winter and cut back to fresh new growth in spring. A layer of mulch around the base in colder areas helps protect the roots.\u003c\/p\u003e \n\u003cp\u003eDecorative pot not included.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Leaf Envy","offers":[{"title":"40-50cm","offer_id":57953783447936,"sku":"L01726","price":17.6,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0093\/4412\/2980\/files\/35.jpg?v=1777023418","url":"https:\/\/www.leafenvy.co.uk\/products\/verbena-1","provider":"Leaf Envy","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
