Verbascum phoeniceum Flush of White 9cm
Verbascum âFlush of Whiteâ is a graceful perennial producing tall spires of pure white flowers with soft yellow centres from early to midsummer. The upright blooms rise from a low rosette of silvery-green leaves, adding height and lightness to sunny borders.

⢠Soil: Well-drained, moderately fertile soil
⢠Position: Ideal for borders, gravel gardens, or wildlife-friendly planting
