I agree with you. It is Verbena , but I do not know the species name. It is a perenial plant.

Dear all,

I think Verbena bipinnatifida L. is grown only in high altitudes (Kodaikanal in TN). This is from a coastal region near Chennai.

I had seen the posted plant plant in Madurai district (alt: 100 - 150 metres) also .
