Planting & Care

Where to Plant

  • Sunlight: Give this perennial at least 6 to 8 hours of direct sunlight to maintain its sturdy, upright form. While it can handle light afternoon shade in very hot climates, full sun ensures the richest golden bronze color and prevents the flower spikes from leaning.
  • Soil: It thrives in lean, well drained soil that is alkaline to neutral. If you have heavy clay, plant it in a raised bed or incorporate fine gravel to improve drainage, as "wet feet" during the winter will cause the crown to rot.

Watering Requirements

During the first growing season, water deeply twice a week to help the taproot reach deep into the soil. Once established, this plant is highly drought tolerant and prefers to dry out between waterings. Avoid overhead irrigation because trapped moisture in the fuzzy leaf rosette can lead to fungal issues or crown rot.

Pruning Tips

Verbascum Honey Dijon blooms on new wood produced during the current growing season. Remove spent flower spikes promptly to encourage a second flush of blooms and to prevent the plant from putting all its energy into seed production. Think of this like a quick trim that keeps the plant's energy focused on looking its best rather than retiring for the season.

Fertilizer Needs

Apply a light application of a balanced, slow release fertilizer in early spring as new growth emerges. Avoid high nitrogen fertilizers late in the summer because they stimulate soft, lush growth that is easily damaged by the first frost. These plants actually prefer lower fertility, so a single spring feeding is usually all they need to thrive.

Description

The Vibrant and Versatile Verbascum Honey Dijon

  • Peach and Gold Colored Bloom Spikes
  • Summer Reblooming
  • Pollinator Friendly
  • Deer and Drought Tolerant

Abundant, early Spring flowers top the dwarf reblooming perennial, Honey Dijon Verbascum (Verbascum ‘Honey Dijon’). Also known as Honey Dijon "Mullein," large, peach and gold colored blooms, with plum eyes, cover numerous spikes protruding above the compact, yet lovely, green foliage.

Reaching a height of just 15 inches, the Sugar Plum packs a big punch in a small package. The peach and gold shaded flowers emerge early in the season, and while each individual flower does not last a long time, the numerous flowers it produces continue its fresh bloom appearance over a long period.

The bloom period can be prolonged all the way to the end of summer by deadheading the spent flowers, before they set seed.

Verbascum Honey Dijon prefers full sun and well-drained soils for best results. It's frost and drought tolerant once established.

Pollinators like hummingbirds, butterflies, and beneficial pollinators will flock to your Honey Dijon Verbascum, just like your plant-loving neighbors will do when they see the blooms! Deer generally do not bother with the plant.

The Honey Dijon Verbascum is perfect for small gardens or sunny borders. Try them in containers around your patio, or even in your gravel or rock garden. They make lovely cut flowers for a home bouquet!

If you're looking for a petite, reblooming perennial, with gorgeous blooms, give the Verbascum Honey Dijon a try today!
