Angie Penrose –
I should also mention I am in zone 6a northern Indiana.

I purchased this plant at Garden Crossings in June 2024 for my landscape paired with Supertunia Vista Bubblegum. I really loved the vigorous growth and beautiful purple color of this plant. It died back in the late Fall and I expected it would not grow back this year. July 2025 it is every bit as beautiful in blooms and vigor. I highly recommend Meteor Showers and Garden Crossings.

I too love the 2 METEOR SHOWER Verbena plants I ordered. They arrived quickly and in perfect health. After planting them, the next day they showed signs of growth. Now less than a week later, they are beginning to bloom. Amazing. I whole heartedly recommend it for anyone who wants to get flowers in their garden quickly. Thanks Gardencrossing
