BLUE VERVAIN IS A GOOD CHOICE FOR A PLANT NEAR YOUR WATER GARDEN BUT NOT IN IT.
Water garden plant: Locally grown near Minneapolis/St. Paul, MN: Rain Garden plant
Type: Marginal pond plant, rain garden plant
Flower: Purple flower spikes bloom from bottom to top with a few blossoms open at a time. Clump forming. Blooms in summer.
Height: 24-72 inches
Light: Full sun preferred.
Zone: 3-8
Water Depth at Planting: Definately a marginal plant. Does not like roots in standing water! Typically grows in damp to wet soils in ditches, along meadows, and swamps.
Adds color and height to any pond edge – best planted with something more trim in front of it to soften its “rough” country garden look.
