Grow a hardy, visually striking herbal favorite with Mullein Seeds (Verbascum thapsus). This resilient biennial thrives in full sun and well-drained soil, producing tall flowering stalks, soft silver-green leaves, and bright yellow blooms. Mullein adapts easily to a range of garden conditions, growing well in the ground or in containers. Its traditional use in herbal gardens and its value for pollinators make it a meaningful addition for both practical and ornamental landscapes.

Adaptable, Resilient, and Rich in Garden Value:

• Biennial herb known for its tall flower spikes and large, velvety leaves
• Thrives in full sun, dry to moderate soils, and low-maintenance garden settings
• Suitable for containers, cottage gardens, herb gardens, and naturalized areas
• Vibrant yellow flowers attract bees, butterflies, and other beneficial pollinators

Why Customers Love Mullein:

• A classic herbal plant with a long history of traditional use
• Striking vertical growth adds height and texture to garden beds
• Tolerates heat, drought, and poor soils once established
• Supports biodiversity by drawing pollinators throughout the blooming season

How to Grow:
Sow mullein seeds in early spring after the danger of frost has passed, or start indoors 6–8 weeks before planting out. Surface-sow the seeds, as they need light to germinate, and keep the soil lightly moist. Plant in full sun with well-drained soil. In its first year, mullein forms a rosette of large fuzzy leaves; in the second year, it sends up tall flowering stalks that bloom throughout summer.

Harvest & Use:
Once mature, leaves may be gathered during the growing season and dried for traditional herbal preparations. Flower spikes can be left standing to support pollinators or allowed to dry naturally for seed collection.
