    Wonderful! My Gran has some of these and said we can take as many as we want for our new house. I use them medicinally and hope to soon have them for bee food too. Thank you for discussing this wonderful wooly plant!

    You have a lovely voice. I live within twelve miles of Portland, OR area. Will this live through an extremely rainy fall and winter? I'm new at this. Thank you in advance for your answer. Great video. Keep em coming.

    Is this a plant that should be pruned back in late winter early spring when other perennials are being cut down to the ground?

    So I live in Napa, California. It’s hot and dry here for about 10 months and then we have a wet rainy season for 2 months in the winter/spring. Do you think it will do okay here?

      Is it in a sunny dry spot? I have found if they don’t get a full day of sunshine they don’t bloom.

      It is probably Mullein they are similar both with the fuzzy leaves. Mullein has yellow flowers off of a tall stock.

      Lamb's Ear gets maybe knee high with purple blooms. Mullein gets 8 feet tall with yellow flowers. I like them both )))
