Description
Verbena x hybrida 'Tuscany Pastel Mixed' is a variety of Garden Verbena with large flowers in a delicate mix of pastel shades. Vigorous, resistant, and floriferous, it will enchant you throughout the summer. Remarkable both in borders and in pots.
Highly appreciated for their generous flowering and vibrant colors, Garden Verbenas, also known as Verbena hortensis, are perennial plants with low hardiness. A disadvantage widely compensated for by their ease of cultivation and the duration of their flowering, which extends from June to September. Versatile, they can be used in borders, flower beds, or even in pots.
The 'Tuscany Pastel Mixed' Garden Verbena has a compact habit, reaching a height of 25cm (10in) and a width of 30cm (12in). It can be easily paired with Diascias, Ornamental Tobacco, and more, both in borders and in pots.
Native to South America and belonging to the Verbenaceae family, Verbena x hybrida, as its name suggests, is the result of hybridization. It bears finely dissected flowers arranged in umbels, like small flat bouquets measuring 6 to 8cm (2 to 3in), with colors varying depending on the varieties. Its leaves are finely dissected, sometimes lobed, and of a beautiful medium green. It is a nectar-rich plant that is highly attractive to butterflies.
Garden Verbenas thrive in sunny locations with rich, well-drained soil. When grown in pots, be careful not to apply too much nitrogen fertilizer, as it can promote foliage growth at the expense of flowers.
Easy to grow, Garden Verbenas may occasionally be susceptible to fungal diseases (mildew, powdery mildew), a nuisance that can be easily avoided by not planting them in confined areas and avoiding wetting their foliage during watering. It is also important to watch out for possible attacks by red spider mites, thrips, and slugs. To encourage and support its long flowering period, regularly remove faded flowers.
These attentions will be greatly rewarded!

Planting and care
Sow from February to April, either in a seed tray or directly in pots filled with a good seed compost kept slightly moist. Do not cover the seeds. Place the container in a well-lit, warm location maintained at 24-27 °C (75.2-80.6°F). Germination usually takes 14 to 21 days. When the young plants are strong enough to handle, transplant if necessary into pots and gradually acclimatize the young plants to outdoor conditions before planting them in the garden with a spacing of 35cm (14in).

Hardiness is the lowest winter temperature a plant can endure without suffering serious damage or even dying. However, hardiness is affected by location (a sheltered area, such as a patio), protection (winter cover) and soil type (hardiness is improved by well-drained soil).
In temperate climates, pruning of spring-flowering shrubs (forsythia, spireas, etc.) should be done just after flowering.
Pruning of summer-flowering shrubs (Indian Lilac, Perovskia, etc.) can be done in winter or spring.
In cold regions as well as with frost-sensitive plants, avoid pruning too early when severe frosts may still occur.
The harvesting period indicated on our website applies to countries and regions in USDA zone 8 (France, England, Ireland, the Netherlands).
In colder areas (Scandinavia, Poland, Austria...) fruit and vegetable harvests are likely to be delayed by 3-4 weeks.
In warmer areas (Italy, Spain, Greece, etc.), harvesting will probably take place earlier, depending on weather conditions.
The sowing periods indicated on our website apply to countries and regions within USDA Zone 8 (France, UK, Ireland, Netherlands).
In colder areas (Scandinavia, Poland, Austria...), delay any outdoor sowing by 3-4 weeks, or sow under glass.
In warmer climes (Italy, Spain, Greece, etc.), bring outdoor sowing forward by a few weeks.
The planting period indicated on our website applies to regions in USDA Zone 9a (East Coast and Midlands: Dublin, Wexford, Waterford, Kilkenny, Portlaoise). It will vary depending on where you live:
- On the west coast and in the north-west (Galway, Limerick, Sligo, Donegal, Westport), delay planting by 1 to 2 weeks in spring and bring it forward by 1 to 2 weeks in autumn compared to the dates given, preferably choosing periods without strong winds.
- In the inland hills and plateaus (Wicklow Mountains, Macgillycuddy’s Reeks, Connemara, Killarney), it is best to plant in spring (April–May) or autumn (September–October), avoiding periods of waterlogged soil in winter and strong winds, which pose the main risk to newly planted trees in these areas.
The flowering period indicated on our website applies to regions in USDA Zone 9a, such as the East Coast and Midlands, including Dublin, Wexford, Waterford, Kilkenny and Portlaoise.
This will vary depending on where you live:
- On the west coast and in the northwest (Galway, Limerick, Sligo, Donegal and Westport), it will be delayed by one to two weeks compared to the given dates, due to stronger Atlantic winds and less spring sunshine.
- In the inland hills and plateaus (the Wicklow Mountains, the Macgillycuddy's Reeks, Connemara and Killarney), flowering will be delayed by two to three weeks. Flowering mainly occurs between May and July, with the limiting factors being less frost and more of the excessive humidity, strong winds and lack of sunshine that are characteristic of these areas.
