Verbascum Phoeniceum - Mixed Colors

Verbascum Phoeniceum – Mixed Colors is a plant that forms long attractive spikes of flowers ranging in colors including pink, red, violet, and white. These flowers spikes are borne above rosette, oval-shaped dark green leaves. They can reach a height up to 3 feet tall, and they have a blooming season ranging from May to August. These hardy plants do best in full sun with well-drained soil and are also drought tolerant. They are native to Europe, West and Central Asia, and North Africa. What’s interesting about these plants is since they are mixed, you won’t know the color of the flower until it blooms! They will attract butterflies and bees to your garden while being resistant to deer and rabbits. It is a wonderful plant for your bees, and they will visit it daily in bloom, bees are something we should all try to help in their survival since they give more than they get! They are best for beds and borders.

I urge anyone buying seed to do their homework on germination, I have not raised and cannot raise many of these plants as I am sub-tropics here in St Augustine, Florida. All seed are NOT alike!  There are so many different factors in germination and not doing a search is throwing your money away. I want everyone to be successful when growing your flowers from seed it is the most rewarding experience in Gardening and you can do it, if you give the seed what it needs to grow. I always check 3 sites of info to choose how I will go about it. It is not hard to do, if you do it right!

SEED GERMINATION TIP!!!!!!!

ONLY GERMINATE A SMALL PORTION AT A TIME.

DON'T PUT ALL YOUR MONKEYS IN A BARREL.

Good Luck and Happy Planting!!!!
