Verbascum

Blossoming in our garden right now is Verbascum, a member of the Mullein family of plants. We grew these from seed last year:

Verbascum

The plants shown above are just over 30″ tall.

They prefer hot dry areas, so I planted them in a spot (where the irrigation doesn’t reach) near the asphalt driveway.

This is the first year of blossoming for these perennials…I forgot I had planted them! What a pleasant surprise.
