Notes
Verbena bonariensis Lollipop is a dwarf variety of this graceful and ethereal herbaceous perennial, reaching only half the height of the familiar traditional cottage garden staple. Tight clusters of small lavender-purple flowers appear to float on the tall, branching stems of this airy plant, and are extremely attractive to butterflies.
