Re: Hot Weather/Gardening style
I will have to agree on the Verbena. I have the same problem. I planted 4 small
plants last year in one of my beds and it has taken over. I give it to every
one that comes to visit, and afterwards you cannot tell where it has been
pulled up. It's pretty but very invasive. haven't decided how to solve this
problem as of yet. I hate the thoughts of killing a plant.
happy gardening
