This is Verbascum sometimes referred to as mullein. Another old fashioned perennial seldom found today in gardens or large garden centers. You can grow most Verbascums anywhere from sun to shade and they're not fussy about soil - they'll even grow in clay with no complaints. Deer don't eat them, snails don't like them, they're completely pest free.They're DROUGHT TOLERANT requiring little water once established.They provide that often neglected but so important vertical accent for balance in your garden. And some do it fast, blooming just a few months after planting. They are LOVED by bees! Bumblebees, honeybees, you-name-it any kind of bees so you're helping a troubled species...
