Description: Swamp verbena is a perennial herb with a 2-5 ft central woody stalk ending in a blue/purple candelabra-like arrangement of blue spikes with rings of flowers. Blue vervain is a favorite of butterflies and bees. Though the name suggests this verbena prefers moist wet open areas it will also thrive in drier sites and under partial shade.
