Can anyone identify these flowers for me? They came in a mix from a
greenhouse I bought.

Many thanks




Lovely pictures and colour combinations btw


Agreed

Is it a verbena (bonensis?)


I thought it looked more like a sea lavender - Limonium. Verbena is more
of an umbel - a symmetrical umbrella shaped flower head not a long bent-
over spike like these.
