Verbascum Olympicum
In stock
Description
Massive panicles composed of countless golden-yellow flowers adorn this gigantic specimen when it flowers in early summer, atop its strong stems and basal rosette of grey-woolly leaves. Although this large and impressive short-lived perennial sometimes dies after such a show-stopping flowering, it always seem to make enough self-sown babies to keep going constantly in subsequent years.
Sowing Advice
Sow immediately at any time onto preferably a soil-based compost, covering with fine grit to approximately their own depth. Germination MAY be quicker if kept at 15 to 20 degrees C. but many seeds WILL NOT come up the year they are sown, needing winter chilling after sowing, and ONLY come up with natural spring germination.
