Verbascum bombyciferum | Giant Silver Mullein Nicola Ferguson so a layer of mulch

so a layer of mulch will help to keep the moisture levels up

very popular in Europe where it's grown up the brick walls of homes and gardens as it provides fabulous autumn colour without causing damage to its host as ivy does

It may need staking on exposed sites or grown amongst other mid-height perennials to give it some support

Whilst considered a short-lived perennial which can actually be anything up to five years but don't despair as this little beauty will actually self-sow and will form large colonies in conditions that it enjoys

Exceptional quality plants
