Glandularia gooddingii
Also known as Southwestern Mock Vervain, Pink Verbena, Southwestern Vervain, Goodding's Verbena, Mojave Verbena
Glandularia gooddingii, also known as Goodding Verbena and Desert Verbena, is a short-lived perennial wildflower, producing gorgeous lavender tubular flowers in the springtime that attract butterflies. The small gray-green leaves have serrated edges and are covered with short white hairs. Goodding verbena will bloom in the cool season, February-April, or even earlier. With irrigation, flowering can continue into summer and on to autumn. For best display, irrigate regularly while blooming.
Plant in full sun to partial shade and well-drained soils. Allow to go to seed, providing new seedlings to replace the older plants as they die. Although short-lived, this plant reseeds readily in the landscape.

Winter Shipping: We will continue to ship throughout winter. If you prefer, we are happy to hold your order until spring; please include that request in your shipping notes.
When you order plants from our nursery, you can expect them to arrive in the best possible condition. Our team carefully packs each order using sturdy, biodegradable packaging materials.
Your plants' appearance may vary depending on the season and their current growth stage. We may cut back the leafy growth of some plants to prepare them for shipment and transplanting.
5 Gallon and Up: Any plant purchased to ship over 5 Gallons will be shipped bare root. This means we will remove the plant from its original pot, remove the soil surrounding the roots, and wrap the roots with a biodegradable plastic bag. This reduces weight and the likelihood of damage during shipping.
Once your plants arrive, it is essential to plant them as soon as possible. This will help them rebound and thrive. If you cannot plant immediately, water regularly and keep the roots off heat-conducting surfaces.
Newly transplanted plants often require more water until their roots are well established. Plan to water them 1-3 times weekly for the first few months.
