Verbascum phoeniceum - Violetta

Beautiful Violet Spires for Easy Elegance

Up to 12 plants ship for just $14.99 - so Fill Your Box and Save*

When looking for an easy-to-grow, no fuss perennial, Verbascums ("Mullein") are an excellent choice. With tall stately blooming stalks, they are not fussy about soil, are drought tolerant, deer and snail proof, and are happy growing in sun to bright shade. They are truly a "plant and forget" plant. If you cut them back, they will re-bloom fairly quickly - plus they reseed. To sum it up, they make your garden look great with absolutely no work! This rare selection makes branching spikes of a rich, dark, violet-purple, but Mullein come in a variety of other colors too. Grows to 30" tall.

Guarantee

We guarantee the perishable items we sell to be in good, viable condition when we sell them. Perishable items include, but are not limited to, garlic bulbs, flower bulbs, seed potatoes, onion sets & transplants, potted or bare root trees, vegetable crowns, etc. If your perishable item arrives in substandard condition, take photographs and please contact us within 3 days of the purchase date (or delivery date) and we will provide you with a refund of the purchase price (excluding shipping costs), or a replacement. Accordingly, we urge you to open any boxes marked as ""Perishable"" immediately upon receiving them and inspect the shipment thoroughly (do not crack open heads of garlic, we do not accept claims on cracked garlic). Because some perishable items can deteriorate very quickly, we cannot accept any claims beyond the 3-day time frame as it becomes too difficult to determine if these items were delivered in substandard condition, or if they turned into such substandard condition because of having been improperly cared for or stored once delivered.
