The verbenas will flop over and grow new roots where ever the stem touches the soil. No need to really plant it deeper, but, pinch out the tip of each stem and let the side branches emerge and it will get a lot denser, too. It may be too warm and too dim for the plants where ever you have them, too. Maybe move them to get a little more light. I have mine in full sun in the greenhouse.
I have them behind a 72 cell tray which has Carrots in it. The Carrots are hitting the top of the dome. Would you switch places? Put the tray with the Verbenas in front? Thanks Beale.
