Flowers are usually rich violet-purple, though seed-raised plants can also produce pink or white. It brings height without bulk to cottage gardens, gravel gardens and sunny borders.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eGrow in full sun in well-drained, preferably alkaline soil; it tolerates poor, dry ground and is fully hardy. It is a biennial or short-lived perennial, so let some seedheads ripen to self-sow. Cutting spent spikes back to the rosette may encourage a second flush. Check for mullein moth caterpillars in early summer. Bees visit the flowers.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Lincspplants","offers":[{"title":"9cm Potted","offer_id":54541074301275,"sku":"VERBA-PHO-9CMPOT","price":8.99,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0861\/1590\/9979\/files\/Verbascumphoeniceum01.jpg?v=1760014377","url":"https:\/\/www.lincsplants.com\/products\/verbascum-phoeniceum-9cm-potted","provider":"Lincspplants","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
