Okay, so it’s weedy and about as bitter as they come, but hey, weeds make good medicine too. Will self-seed but is easy to remove and share with friends! I think of Blue Vervain for when things feel stuck. When folks are down and can’t see a way out, a low grade fever without the sweats, or a big fatty meal stuck in the gut. Plant in sun.
Verbena hastata is a PERENNIAL growing to 1.5 m (5ft) by 0.6 m (2ft in).
It is in flower from July to August. The species is hermaphrodite (has both male and female organs) and is pollinated by Bees, flies, Lepidoptera (Moths & Butterflies). The plant is self-fertile.
