Estrella Merlot Verbena (Verbena hybrid 'Estrella Merlot') is a high-impact perennial that brings a touch of vintage elegance to the garden. This variety is celebrated for its oversized flower clusters in a deep, velvety wine-red that mimics the rich tones of a fine Merlot. Unlike older Verbena varieties, the Estrella series is bred for a tidy, mounding-to-semi-trailing habit and exceptional resistance to powdery mildew.

As a robust member of the Verbena genus, 'Estrella Merlot' is a sun-lover through and through. It features dark green, serrated foliage that provides a perfect high-contrast backdrop for the intense red blooms. It is a top-tier choice for hanging baskets, "spiller" roles in mixed patio pots, or as a vibrant groundcover in sunny beds. Why you’ll love it: Deep, sophisticated wine-red color, excellent disease resistance, and a relentless bloom cycle that attracts butterflies all summer long.

Product Details: This Estrella Merlot Verbena is delivered as an established 4-inch live plant in a nursery pot. It reaches a height of 8-12 inches and thrives in full sun.
