Verbena

Has anyone grown verbena from seed? I really hadn't thought about it, until I saw seeds listed at Artistic Gardens aka Le Jardin du Gourmet. I had an order with them, and added the verbena. Why not?! Packet says 20 days germination, some of mine showing within a week. I keep the small peat pellet trays inside by window until sprouts show, then move out to sheltered and light shade.

I know it's late to start these, but doing a trial run to perhaps play with next season.

Hi Susan,

I've grown from seed before and they really took off after a while but some didn't make it through the winter of their 1st year. It did however self sow quite well so they replaced the plants that the frost got.
