Temptress Purple Verbascum Seeds
Re-seeds happily if the final blooms are allowed to go to seed in autumn.
The brightest Verbascum yet, with neon-purple blooms.
Such a pleasure, and so easy to grow! This super-compact Verbascum is great for containers as well as the garden, its brilliant grape-soda purple blooms visible from far away. Prepared to bloom heavily all summer and even to self-sow, it is a charming plant any gardener will appreciate.
Growing about 50cm tall but only half as wide, this is a great plant for containers and small-space gardens. Who has the room for those big rangy varieties, or the time to stake them before their heavy blooms make them topple?! 'Temptress Purple' is short on foliage and long on colour-drenched flowers, making it a great choice for the vase as well as the garden
Give this plant plenty of sunshine and well-drained soil, and it will return for a year or two. But if you let the final blooms remain on the plant until the petals blow away, it will re-seed itself magnificently, so your Verbascum garden increases with each passing season! A must-have for color lovers in every climate.
