A well-known, old ‘verbena’ variety with toothed, dark green leaves and flat clusters of bright magenta-pink flowers from late spring into autumn. ‘Sissinghurst’ is a spreading semi-evergreen perennial perfect for spilling from patio pots, windowboxes and large baskets. - Garden care: In cold conditions it can suffer dieback if cut back in autumn, so it's best to leave the plant until spring and cut back the old growth when you see the new shoots emerging at the base. Also it's a good idea to mulch around the base of the plant with a deep, dry mulch in winter to help protect the plant.
