Verbascum bombyciferum | Giant Silver Mullein Nicola Ferguson It has an upright growth

It has an upright growth habit and is a must have for the border as well as a cottage garden where it adds a touch of both elegance and fragrance and certainly adds a "pretty factor" to the garden with its brilliant floral display and looks stunning planted in drifts - also a beautiful cut flower

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

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

This iris is prized for its fragrant flowers that bloom from late autumn through winter

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