Beautiful! I have a different variety of purple verbena in several pots, paired with a coral colored Calibrachia in one, and English ivy in another. I love them!

Be careful with English ivy. My beach neighbor planted some in his yard 30 years ago. I don’t see any left in his yard, but since I am not there constantly to keep it under control it has spread across my 70 foot wide property to the far edge where it grows up the neighbor’s fence and my trees including my tree next to the neighbor’s fence. I try to pull it off the trees, but it grows into the spaces between the bark, and is hard to remove. Sometimes it has even grown by rooting into the bark. I now hate English ivy.
