It’s noon on a Wednesday, and the parking lot for Shop 1893 is packed. Outside, an older gentleman is watering the plants, which are still in full bloom the second week of December. Various butterflies lilt among the flowers as a trill of holiday jazz pours from the front door of the Price Center, which houses Shop 1893, the Marie Jager Theater and the Art Gallery.
Superbena Royale Plum Wine verbena blooming in December brings in a newborn Gulf Fritillary butterfly.
Superbena Stormburst verbena also boasts large flowers and is paired here with echinacea.
Superbena Imperial Blue verbena makes its debut in 2022 and here it hosts a Gulf Fritillary in October at The Garden Guy’s house.

As I was watching a fresh newborn Gulf Fritillary swooping down to feed on Superbena Royale Plum Wine verbenas I started thinking I wish everyone knew about these flowers that our grandparents grew and certainly laced with native DNA.
