Create a dramatic, architectural statement in your garden with our Greek Mullein seeds. This impressive heirloom biennial forms a large, ground-hugging rosette of incredibly soft, silvery-gray, felted leaves in its first year. In the second year, it sends up a towering, candelabra-like flower stalk branched with hundreds of bright yellow blossoms. Native to the rocky terrains of Greece, this is a stunning, low-maintenance, and drought-tolerant plant perfect for a sunny, dry border.
