That’s such a shame. All our verbascums at work have been decimated this year. Don’t know why I bother!

They are beautiful. I look out for them on the mulleins but never see them.

There is a great plant identification facility on google search. Just click on the camera on the google search bar and then when the photo has been taken click search with your camera. Its really handy.
