Verbena looks dried out and very droopy, but it's not dry. It rained overnight and was cool. Will it recover?
Question:
Answers:
Verbena is a very hardy plant and virtually maintenance free. If they are newly planted, though, they might need a little extra water for the first week or two.
But if you have well-established plants, they will bounce back. The rain falling down on the delicate flowers might have just "squashed" them down a bit.
If you haven't fertilized them in a while, you might consider giving them some Miracle Gro or other plant food once a month, for an added boost.
Very probably, just try to make sure it stays watered from now on.
Just because it rained doesn't mean it got watered good enough. Potted plants are basicly in the air and they will dry out fast. If you worry about watering it too much try misting it. It may be getting too much sun?
