Lemon Verbena carries the cleanest citrus scent in the garden: narrow, glossy green leaves ringing the stems, releasing a sharp lemon wave the moment a sleeve brushes past. Aloysia triphylla arrives as a live 4-inch plant.

Give it a spot you walk by often, such as a large patio container beside a path, a doorway, or the edge of a seating area where an arm can trail through it. With full sun and room to stretch it builds into a loose, bushy shrub, with airy spikes of tiny white and lilac flowers in summer and fall. Water when the surface dries, keep the roots well drained, prune in early spring for a fuller frame, and pinch the tips in summer for more branching.

Fun fact: The species name triphylla means three-leaved, for the way the leaves circle each stem in neat whorls of three, a tidy signature you can confirm at a glance.

Guaranteed to arrive healthy, or we send another.

We use expedited shipping policies to protect plant health and minimize plant stress in transit.  All plants are in transit for only 1-3 days. (This does not guarantee 3-day delivery as orders are not always packed and sent out on the day of your order.) We send out deliveries on a weekly schedule to ensure quick transit times, so your order may not be packaged and shipped until later in the week. For instance, we may hold shipments to avoid weekend delays that keep plants in transit for longer.

All packaging includes eco-friendly material and our shipping methods are tested regularly to ensure plants arrive healthy upon arrival.

Additionally, any delays or damages in shipping are covered by our Healthy Plant Guarantee.

If you're plants arrived damaged, we will happily replace them for free!
