Description
Verbascum 'Peach Champagne' brings a soft, fruity glow to summer borders, with torch-like flower spikes rising from a neat rosette of semi-evergreen foliage. Its blooms open in delicate shades of peach, champagne and cream, creating a pastel display that feels refined, warm and quietly celebratory. The upright stems give Verbascum 'Peach Champagne' a clear sense of structure, while the gentle colouring keeps the effect light and romantic. It is especially lovely among silvery foliage, airy grasses and purple-blue companions, where its mellow tones can look luminous rather than sugary.
Elegant but not fussy, Verbascum 'Peach Champagne' suits sunny perennial borders, gravel gardens and relaxed cottage-style planting, where it adds height without heaviness. The basal rosette remains handsome before the flowers appear, then the spires bring movement and vertical rhythm through the warmer months. Plant Verbascum 'Peach Champagne' in full sun and well-drained soil, and avoid overly rich conditions for the best, most graceful growth. With its blend of soft colour and architectural poise, Verbascum 'Peach Champagne' is a charming way to lift a planting scheme, like a glass raised quietly at the back of the border.

Useful information
-
Soak the Verbascum 'Peach Champagne' roots in water for 3-6 hours prior to planting
Plant your "Mullein" bare roots into temporary pots with a multipurpose compost within a week of delivery and grow-on in a sheltered spot outdoors
Choose a pot which comfortably fits the bare roots. Some have a noticeable crown which should be just below the soil surface with any top growth exposed. Some varieties are a length of root which should be planted lengthways and shallowly (1-2cm deep).
Plant out into borders or permanent containers in late spring or early summer once in full growth. Choose a position in sun or shade depending on the variety.
