The Verbascum Snow Maiden, 'Verbascum hybridum', also known as Mullein, has masses of pure white flowers with yellow stamens. The stalks arise off of fuzzy gray-green leaves, which add contrast to the flower color. `Snow Maiden' has a plant height of 3-4' and a plant spread of 1-2' and blooms from late spring into summer. Verbascum will tolerate a wide range of soil conditions but must have good drainage or it could be fatal. `Snow Maiden' can be planted in rocky slopes to add color, as a border plant or in cottage gardens.
