VERBASCUM PHOENICUM
PACKETS CONTAIN 50 SEEDS
Verbascum phoeniceum, known as Mullein and is a worthwhile perennial, especially for hot sunny sites. Plants form a low, ground-hugging rosette of crinkly green leaves, bearing upright stems or spikes of pure white flowers.
Stems are tall and excellent for cutting. Although not a long-lived perennial, these usually self-sow. Seedlings are easily moved while small. Most effective when planted in groups towards the middle of the border.
