Honey Dijon Mullein
Compact, Verbascum ‘Honey Dijon’ is a short-lived perennial with abundant, graceful spikes smothered with clusters of peach and gold flowers, each adorned with a plum-purple eye. Blooming over a long flowering period extending from late spring to late summer (if properly deadheaded), the flower stalks rise elegantly from a handsome low-growing rosette of crispy-green leaves. Perfect for sunny borders and small gardens.
