ALL ORNAMENTAL (Flower) SEED

A truly perennial species of mullein with super showy, tall spikes covered with stunning white flowers with contrasting purple stamens that have orange anthers!! These verbascums are incredible pollinator magnets!

They have a long bloom period & will rebloom profusely on long flower stalks in mid- and late summer, reaching about 100cm high. (deadheading helps). The flowers are great for cutting for flower arrangements.

*because these grow on the same property as the beautiful yellow “Sixteen Candles” verbascum, it is possible some may be yellow as these plants are crazy pollinator plants!

Butterflies & people alike are magnetically drawn to these graceful, violet coloured beauties! Grows 36-48" (91 - 122cm) with 2" clusters of flowers - drought & heat tolerant once established.

I love inter-planting/layering these with others flowers like Rudbeckia which creates an airy violet cloud above the other blooms.  It is a graceful counterpart to larger flowers and invariably compliments with a quiet, modest charm without overwhelming.

Superb butterfly plant, rivalling even Buddleia (butterfly bush) and is a sight to behold when the butterflies are fluttering gleefully about it. I have it planted by the door and often walk through a cloud of butterflies:-)

It makes an excellent cut flower. Awarded the RHS Award of Garden Merit
