White Vervain, also known as Nettle-leaved Vervain, is a native plant species found in North America. It is characterized by its tall, slender stems, and small, delicate white flowers that bloom in dense spikes. Commonly growing up to 3 feet tall, White Vervain prefers moist to dry soil and can thrive in full sun or partial shade. It is typically found in USDA hardiness zones 4 to 9. For propagation, Verbena urticifolia seeds can be collected from mature plants and sown in well-draining soil. Its beautiful blooms and adaptability make it a popular choice for wildflower gardens.
