Product Description
A plant with history.
The leaves have been used traditionally in teas and tinctures as support for respiratory health. Historically, people have even used the mullein stalk as a torch, ceremonially and for utilitarian purposes, thus mullein earned nicknames such as, “Miner’s Torch” and “Witches Candle”.
In addition to its rich history and dazzling appearance, mullein is also easy to grow and to harvest!

Mullein is a unique plant with its basal rosette, fuzzy stalks, velvety leaves and yellow blossoms, it is sure to draw the eye!

This charming biennial plant is a great addition to your garden with its flowering stocks, unique foliage, and diverse uses after harvest.

Our Seeds are Non-GMO, Open Pollinated, Heirloom and USDA Organic
Mullein plants can reach up to six feet tall. Mullein is drought resistant and heat tolerant, the mullein plant is quite prolific with its seed production, once established it will spread easily when allowed to. We advise starting seeds indoors in the early spring. Our Mullein seeds are heirloom and some varieties are available certified organic!
We’ve maintained our own seed line for a better part of the last decade, and this has resulted in improved germination rates of the plant versus wildcrafted seed. This makes sourcing seed from our company an easy ethical choice.
All seeds are produced at our farm in Ojai, California, United States.
Common Mullein
Great Mullein (Verbascum thapsus) is just that; the soft, minty-green leaves are our favorite for teas or for smoking. Also known as "Common Mullein," this species is quite prolific both in terms of its breadth of habitat and leaf production. Incredibly easy to grow and very pleasing to look at.
Wand Mullein
Wand Mullein (Verbascum virgatum), also known as Twiggy Mullein is a biennial plant geographically native to southern Europe. Perhaps atypical for those who associate mulleins with broad, fuzzy light green foliage, Wand Mullein has thin, dark green leaves that form a basal rosette before singularly leafing up the stalk. Stalks are a singular and upright, reaching approximately five feet tall, and produce the signature yellow mullein flowers.
Silk Mullein
Silk Mullein, (Verbascum bombyciferum) is a unique mullein species with large, broad basal growth of thick, pale green leaves. As plants mature, they form sturdy, furry white stalks with large yellow flowers that bees and other beneficial pollinators love to snack on. This is definitely a show stopper in the garden when in flower! One plant can encompass an area of three square feet. This variety is certified organic.
Dense Flowering Mullein
Dense-Flowered Mullein (Verbascum densiflorum) is the largest mullein offered in our catalog. Broad basal leaves eventually yield stalks with profuse yellow flowers. Plants can reach up to six feet tall. Leaves are less fuzzy than Common Mullein. This variety is certified organic.

Because it is a small seed I planed many in small starters and do not have an exact number of how many I planted. At least 30 sprouted and grew so I consider this a good seed.

Mullein already is growing here, but I wanted to have seeds now for where I am moving to, but early spring is when the directions say to plant it, so I will have to wait 3 seasons.
