Purple-Throated (also called "Nettle Leaved") Mullein forms dense spires of petite white haloed blossoms with pink centers. Stouter than other Verbascum species, with thin smooth green leaves, each one with a deep purple "throat." Will flower in the first year if started earlier enough, but tends toward its true biennial nature if grown late season.

Seeds are certified organic.
