Container companion, border baddie, flowering phenom - this cottage garden classic does it all! Straight out of a fairytale, Verberna officinalis var. grandiflora ‘Bampton’ is loaded with dreamy maroon inflorescences that open to reveal bubblegum-to-magenta pink florets. The contrast of the gorgeous pink blooms against the rugged, bronzy dark green foliage makes ‘Bampton’ Common Vervain an absolute stunner paired with lighter blooming perennials of mid to late summer. The blooms erupt over this perennial’s somewhat shrubby form from July to September, followed by a magnificent display of eggplant-colored foliage during autumn. ‘Bampton’ Vervain makes a wonderful container plant, and should be considered for the full sun perennial border or whimsical cottage garden.
