Wildflower - Common Mullein

Several Common Mullein (Verbascum thapsus) plants are growing along the driveway to our cabin. This species of mullein is native to Europe and can grow to 8 feet tall.


All parts of the plant are covered with a soft hair like covering. The large soft leaves of the plant have lead to the nickname "Cowboy Toilet Paper"
