Verbena 'Lanai Green' - British Grown
This unusual trailing verbena produces clusters of soft white flowers with delicate green centres, creating a fresh and elegant display throughout summer. Verbena ‘Lanai Green’ has a gently spreading habit that works beautifully in hanging baskets, patio containers, and window boxes, where it softens planting schemes with light, airy colour. Flowering continuously from late spring until the first frosts, it provides long-lasting interest and blends effortlessly with both bold and pastel summer displays.
Verbena ‘Lanai Green’, commonly known simply as Verbena, is loved for its unique colouring and reliable flowering performance. The subtle green-eyed blooms add texture and brightness without overpowering neighbouring plants, making it an especially versatile addition to mixed containers. Its lightly trailing growth and weather-tolerant nature help it stay looking fresh and floriferous right through the season.

Scientific Name
Verbena ‘Lanai Green’
Common Name
Trailing Verbena
Origin
Cultivated hybrid originating from South American Verbena species
Pruning Tips
Lightly trim back stems during midsummer if plants become stretched or flowering slows. Removing faded flower heads can help encourage fresh blooms.
Wildlife Value
The nectar-rich flowers are highly attractive to bees, butterflies, and other pollinating insects throughout summer.
Positioning
Best grown in full sun in hanging baskets, patio containers, window boxes, and raised planters. Prefers a warm, sheltered position with good airflow.
Water
Water regularly during warmer weather, especially in baskets and containers which dry out quickly. Allow the top layer of compost to dry slightly between waterings.
Soil
Thrives in fertile, free-draining compost with plenty of organic matter. A quality peat-free basket or container compost works well.
Food
Feed every 1–2 weeks with a balanced or high-potash liquid fertiliser during the growing season to support continuous flowering.
Pet-safe
Generally considered non-toxic to pets, although ingestion may still cause mild stomach upset.
Sprouts Top Tips
The soft white and green flowers work beautifully mixed with lime-green foliage, lavender tones, or darker trailing plants for a fresh, layered summer basket display.
