A tough, drought-tolerant native vervain with upright stems covered in hairy, grey-green foliage and dense spikes of small violet-purple flowers from summer into fall. Thrives in the hottest, driest conditions where other plants struggle. A long-blooming favorite of native bees and butterflies in prairie and meadow plantings.
