Blue Vervain Leaf

Blue Vervain is a bristly perennial native to the northern U.S. and Canada and also to be found in England. The quadrangular stem reaches a height of 2 to 5 feet and bears leaves that are minate, serrate, and 3 to 6 inches long. Some of the lower leaves are hastately lobed at the base, making good on the botanical name. The small deep blue or purplish-blue flowers are sessile in dense spikes, 2 to 3 inches long, which are arranged in a panicle. The fruit consists of four nutlets which ripen soon after the plant flowers.
