Superbena^® Violet Ice Verbena hybrid

Superbena are very vigorous with strongly trailing habits.  They need relatively long days to bloom, but will bloom prolifically.  They have very large flowers and umbels.  They are great in landscapes and containers.  In landscapes, they are best used at the front of beds and they function as spillers in combination planters.  If you are looking for a colorful annual ground cover, Superbena is a great choice.

The most eye-catching part of Superbena Violet Ice is the large white eye. We always select for stable colors that give gardeners the most consistent experience possible. However, when it comes to patterns like this, there is likely to be some variation over time. Superbena Violet Ice will at times naturally change to a solid color. This can be a single flower in a cluster, a whole umbel of flowers or even an entire branch.  For Superbena Violet Ice, this color change is most likely to be to either a striped pattern or solid white. If you prefer that your plant not have this color variation, trimming off the portion of the plant that has flowers with the odd coloration, can minimize how much of your plant ends up with the color change. If you don't mind the new look, there is no need to do anything.  It isn't detrimental to the plant in any way. This isn't a common occurrence, but it is something that happens in a small percentage of Superbena Violet Ice plants each year.
