Mullein, Culinary & Medicinal Herb,

Aka Aaron's Rod, Great Mullein, Common Mullein, Velvet Plant. Known for its soft, fuzzy pale leaves and its tall yellow flower spikes, this is a striking wild plant with healing qualities. The plant has two growth phases, making a large and downy rosette in the first year, an impressive flowering wand in the spring to summer of the second year. It is used topically as an emollient to smooth skin and as an astringent to constrict body tissues. Great Mullein is the most productive and best-respected species to grow for leaf production. Its seeds live a long time (decades to hundreds of years) in the soil, waiting for a disturbance. The plant prefers disturbed soil, grows in clay, gravel, or loam-like full sun, and requires only moderate water. The seeds are light-dependent germinators. Sow in spring by sprinkling on the soil surface and tamp securely, then keep warm, evenly moist, and light until germination, which is rapid. Thin or transplant to 2 feet apart.
