While my garden is currently heavily focused on vegetables and fruits I do throw a few flowers out there from time to time. I am not the most skilled flower gardener so I tend to lean to the easier to grow flowers, enter the Verbena. Verbenas are an easy to care for flower that will bloom from early spring all the way to late fall. This plant is easy to care for and comes in MANY colors! Not only is it a nice looking flower it also attracts butterflies and they are always welcome in my garden. I spend about 5 minutes in the garden today, before it started to rain, and got a few nice pictures. Enjoy!
