{"product_id":"greek-mullein","title":"Greek Mullein","description":"\u003cp\u003eAdd drama and height to your garden with these bountiful candelabra sprays of yellow blooms, which are great for pollinators and medicine making. Like other mulleins, this plant has a wide, low-growing blue-grey rosette of broad leaves, from which springs a tall flower spike in its second year. This is a short-lived perennial that sometimes acts like a biennial. Native to Greece and the Olympus mountains in Turkey.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003ePhotos by Daniel MacPhee at Blackbird Rise.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eDays to maturity:\u003c\/strong\u003e Flowers in second year\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eSeeds per pack:\u003c\/strong\u003e 200\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eGermination rate:\u003c\/strong\u003e 71% on 02\/02\/2026\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003ePlanting \/ harvesting notes\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003ePlant indoors before frost to get a head start by broadcasting over a potting mix and later dividing and potting up.
