A best-selling and award-winning variety, Superbena Royale® Plum Wine is mildew and heat-tolerant as well as vigorous and hardy. Superbena Royale® bloom earlier in the season, and are more easily grown in smaller containers than their larger, later blooming Superbena cousins. The prolific plum Verbena flowers envelope the entire plant in color all season long. They perform well in both containers and landscapes — even garden beds with low-fertility, dry soil.
As if its hardy nature and ample growth are not impressive enough, Superbena Royale® Plum Wine can also act as both a spiller and a thriller in combination container plantings. It has a mounding, trailing growth habit that is full and lush, with trails up to 24” that soften the edges of borders, sidewalks and containers. The cascade of flowers attracts butterflies and brightens any vignette with a vibrant plum-purple hue.
Superbena Royale® Plum Wine Verbena Care
Superbena Royale® varieties are vigorous and easy to care for. An application of compost or well-balanced fertilizer will keep them happy in garden beds all season long. If growing in containers, regular fertilization is needed to support their growth.
Allow the soil to dry before watering. A light trim will boost branching and lead to a fuller look, but is not always necessary. This is a self-cleaning variety that requires no deadheading.
Superbena Royale® Plum Wine Verbena Spacing
Well suited for smaller containers, Superbena Royale® Plum Wine can be planted 6-8” apart in pots. If you’re planting Superbena Royale in the ground, plant them further apart, with 8-12” of space between plants.

Plant Addicts Warranty - 1 Year (Extra Purchase Required)
We encourage all plant lovers to purchase the Plant Addicts Warranty, whether you're a new gardener or an expert. There are many variables outside of anyone's control that can cause a plant to die.

The warranty is purchased on a per plant basis and must be purchased at the same time as the plant(s). We will cover 100% of the price of the plant, but the warranty does not cover shipping costs. SImply let us know if your plant has died within 1 year of receiving it and we will get you a new one shipped out as soon as possible (depending on the time of the year and availability).

Plant Shipping
Below are some factors we consider when determining when to ship the plants depending on the timing of the order.
Winter to Early Spring
We ship only when it's warm enough to plant in your growing zone.
Sometimes plants aren't completely ready to sell and ship in early spring. We will wait until the plants are ready before shipping so you don't get a subpar product.
For Southern plants we will be able to ship much earlier than plants coming from our northern nursery.
Summer
If there is extreme heat we may delay shipping for a week or several weeks.
We review what areas the plants are traveling through as well as your location.
Fall into Winter
We’ll ship plants out all the way up to the end of the fall planting season!
Winter
Get your order in early to reserve your plants for Spring planting!
Once your plant is shipped you’ll receive an automated email with tracking information.
