Mullein Leaf

Mullein leaf or Verbascum thapsus, is an herb from the Scrophulariaceae family that has been used as natural medicine for thousands of years. This plant can grow to great heights, with nearly eight foot tall flower spikes and large, fuzzy leaves. After about two years of growth, its yellow blooms will open – but only for a few days. While generally considered a weed, Mullein can be mashed into an extract or the leaves can be brewed as a tea.
