This plant is a low-maintenance mullein for cottage gardens and wildlife gardens. It is the only plant you need for border plants in cottage gardens to make a noticeable impression is Verbascum olympicum. Tall spikes of buttery-yellow blooms are held in place by the felted, silvery rosette of basal foliage. The perennial Verbascum Olympicum often blooms in its third year and dies soon after its impressive show. It is a rather short-lived plant. Although this mullein is a strong self-seeder, expect lots of fresh seedlings to emerge from the ground to take its place. This low-maintenance perennial is a great summer border plant because it thrives in soil conditions where many other plants would find it difficult to establish. With a quick growth rate of 2 metres, this towering perennial will quickly cover a void in hot, dry borders and create an impressive focal point. Height: 2m (6.6'). Spread: 60m (24").

Growing Information

Plant Mullein into well drained, neutral or alkaline soil in full sun. Verbascum will thrive on poor, gravelly soils.

Live Plants

Suttons strives to ensure that all its plants are delivered to you in the perfect condition for planting. While the majority of our nursery plants cope well with slight delays in intransit, sadly, the time it takes to deliver to certain locations in the UK means that we can't guarantee this for some of our smaller plug products and tender bedding and vegetable lines, which do not respond well to the extra journey time. So regretfully while we offer the majority of our live plant offering nationwide, we are unable to ship plugs, begging plants and tender vegetable plants to the following areas: HS, IV41-IV49, IV51, IV55-56, KW15-KW17, PA34, PA41-48, PA60-PA78, PA80, PH40-PH44, TR21-TR24, ZE1-ZE3.

Non Standard Deliveries

Unfortunately like many companies in our industry we are currently only able to supply orders to UK based customers, excluding those in Northern Ireland. We are committed to finding a way that we can resume or normal services again as soon as possible. Please accept our apologies for any inconvience caused.

Prices include VAT where applicable.

We reserve the right to contact you and advise an additional charge where necessary and are happy to quote for carriage of specific products to more remote areas. Some items may not be available to all areas.

We reserve the right to revise any carriage charges in the event of carrier price increase or other unforeseen circumstances. We will always advise of the carriage charge before payment is taken.

All Suttons products should reach you in perfect condition, just as they left us. If you are dissatisfied in any way with their condition on arrival, please let us know within 14 days.
