I am so made up to find this & just in time too ! I have one of these in my front garden & Love it. Want it everywhere but cant afford to buy lots so perfect to be able to take my own cuttings. Thank you very much :)

Roots are now showing. When I pot these on , will I need to keep them inside? Have not got a green house. Many thanks for great website.

I'd like to know if teh same applies to V. bonareinsis too, please. And is there any advantage in taking cuttings above potting up self sown seedlings and parent plants?

Can I do this with Verbena bonariensis as well?
Do I keep them inside trough winter? I live far north.
It would be so helpfull as I sow V. bonariensis in loads every winter.

Excellent - Agree with Gweno that this article is timely. I have a fantastic verbena that I want to propogate.

Have loads of verbena bonariensis and being in the South West (Cornwall) find that it self seeds EVERYWHERE! - not that I am complaining!

I too find seedlings of bonariensis everywhere..in sw Cornwall too. Homestead purple and rigida are easy. I take layered roots and cuttings..do that in August.....keep,in greenhouse and plant out in spring. However, I find it does best in good soil even though I mostly grow it in a dry wall. I have a yellow osteospermum next to it and elymus magellanicus behind and they have flowered together all summer, still going strong. Took cutting of osteospermum in august too.

Your say
