text: Verbascum thapsus, commonly called common mullein, is a wooly biennial herb that produces (a) a basal rosette of stalked, thick, soft, densely-hairy, flannel-textured, pale gray-green leaves (to 6-15” long) leaves in the first year, (b) an erect, solitary, unbranched, densely hairy flowering stem rising from the center of the rosette to 7’ tall in the second year, each stem being topped in summer by a 20-inch long cylindrical inflorescence of densely-packed, 5-lobed, saucer-shaped, sulphur-yellow flowers (each to 1” across); flowering stems appear winged because the smaller fuzzy alternate oval stem leaves have tapered and prolonged bases which extend down the surface of the stem, (c) a long June-September bloom of flowers, a few at a time, with the best bloom usually appearing in July, (d) rounded downy seed capsules (1/4” diameter) which mature in fall followed by death of the plant as the seed ripens and the bicentennial life cycle is completed.
