I Just Got Mullein And Wondering What Kind I Have

Question

The name on the label says verbascum thapsus. Is that the one that gets 10 feet tall? I just can’t find alot of info on that. Also the label says biennial. Can you explain please. Thank you

I am pasting a link here for an article from a Wisconsin university extension service that should answer most of your questions. I'm also going to give you links to two other articles. The first one is about growing mullein, the second explains biennial plants. I hope these will be helpful:
