Please find for sale 1,000+ fresh Verbascum Phoeniceum Mix seeds  - an easy to grow flower that produces masses of white, pink, salmon and purple flowers on long graceful spikes up 1m - so perfect for the back of the border. For some reason, possibly Brexit issues, the wholesalers have sold out of these seeds so when they are gone, alas they are gone!

Perfect for the back of the border, Verbascum is really a perennial - but is also grown as an annual. They will readily self seed so you should never need to buy another packet of seeds :( !!

Verbasucms should be grown in moist but well-drained soil in full sun. Cut back after flowering or allow to self seed. You can take root cuttings of verbascums in autumn.

PLEASE NOTE: All orders received before 8pm (Mon-Fri) will be dispatched same day

Germination Guide 

  • Sow in UK from Feb to June
  • Use seed trays of moist well-draining compost - Ideally a mix of  50% regular compost, 50% vermiculite 
  • Press seeds into the surface of the compost - do not cover.
  • Keep at 15-18 degrees (eg an unheated indoor room) and out of direct sunlight
  • Germination takes 2/3 weeks
  • When the seeds are large enough to handle, transplant each one into trays or 7.5cm pots. 
  • Grow on in cooler conditions.
  • When all risk of frost has passed and if the roots have reached the bottom of the pot, plant outside
