GROWING INSTRUCTIONS:
For outdoor sowing, wait until frost danger has passed and sow Mullein seeds directly into prepared seedbed. Spacing should be about 18 - 24 inches apart. Verbascum Mullein will bloom the first year if the flower seeds are sown early enough in the season. If starting indoors, a 30-day period of cold stratification is recommended. Mix seeds with a moistened medium and place them into a plastic bag in the refrigerator. Then sow in flats 1/2″ deep. Keep consistently moist.
