I've heard of using the flowers in honey for a syrup for cough syrup. Layering flowers and honey, putting it in the window for 3 weeks then straining it.

Iv just starting smoking it for my asthma and I can breath 100 times better after then with my inhaler . Iv just ordered it in tea leaf but after your video I’m keen to grow my own. Thank you 🙏🏼

Mullen season upon us in 2023... She pops up on her own and this year I have two maturing "candles". So funny thing is I have back and breathing issues ... worse this year because of the fires in Quebec just to the north of us. A perfect timing with this video Terri, thank you.

Hey, I can vouch for the back pain treatment. I had made a mullein root tincture years ago, and it was just sitting in the basement unused. I recently had one of the worse episodes of lower back pain and the timing was horrible, because I had a presentation coming up. It dawned on me that I had that tincture and I took about 1.5 tsps in water and the beneficial effect kicked in within a couple of hours. I couldn't believe it. After some time, the pain returned and I took more and noted the same alleviating effect. I took it about twice a day and was good to go for the presentation. Seriously one of those cases where too-good-to-be-true was actually true. I don't think it works for every type of back pain, and I don't know exactly what my issue was at the time. But the pain was well managed with that mullein tincture.

I also live near an area that was clear cut. As I was foraging today I found the area thriving with mullein, more than I could ever use. There were also abundant amounts of fire weed, comfrey, nettle, and plantain. Thank you for the videos, you’re one of my favorite plant people anywhere.

I found mullein growing at the edge of my woods. I have had a cough that is hanging on from mucus drainage. I will try it!

Just what I needed a lovely video to watch in the sunshine 🌺🌻🌺🌻🌼🌸🌺🌻🌺🌸

Wow that one mullein plant was beautiful! The candelabra 👏

Where as mullein grew everywhere in The Netherlands it does not grow here anymore! Farmers keep cutting the roadsides so before it can grow or bloom it has been cutted! And the newest thing 'they' now do here in the Netherlands is cutting down all the undergrow in forests! So the you can not find mullein aswell! And right in front of our face healthy nature in the Netherlands is gone!! So over two weeks l am leaving for a trip through east and southern Europe and l will look for seeds to bring home in my garden. Thank you for sharing your knowledge! ❤❤

My verbascum thrives and luckily as it self sets is easily moved into various garden beds, a wall of mullein, such joy....thank you Terri..

Thank you for the information. I was delighted to find one growing by my driveway last week. I intend to harvest its seeds later this year and see that more grow about the place.

to be accurate, this is great mullein... there are different types of mullein, i have them all over my orchard as they are the best for soil building and brewing fertilizer and compost. they have deep tap root that breaks up compacted soil and brings nutrients into itself making it a very rich source. the leaves can be rubbed on the skin to relieve itching, pain, and discomfort. they are great at attracting pollinators and hummingbirds. if left alone, the head sticks out of snow in winter making an excellent bird feeder with its seed pods. it is great at suppressing weeds as its big flat leaves block the sun and rain. this is probably one of the most useful plants that most people kill as weeds. it is a biannual which means the first year it shoots roots and builds infrastructure then on second year the flower stock shoots up.

Mulleins grow like crazy in Ireland! We had so many growing wild along the farm lane in Ontario --- too bad we had no idea what to do with them! Perhaps they could have brought relief to the asthma I suffered from hay & grain allergies.

OMG what a beauty garden ..i wish having that 💚💚💚

in my county near the bavarian alps, we also use mullein as an indicator how strogng became the winter. for this, you have to read the flowerstand at 15. august from down to up. this way symbols the time from november till march. and the place who have flowers is the time when it snows. best wishes xande

It’s spring and I bought verbascum seeds. Hoping to scatter throughout the bare spots in my flower beds. 50’s night temperatures mid 60’s daytime.

I came across a very healthy young mullein just yesterday in a neighbour's yard and was so tempted to ask if I might dig it up and replant her at home. Your video is a sign! 🙂💕

You look beautiful today Terri I love the colour of your dress and cardigan on you 👗 I knitted myself a cardigan it’s very warm. 😊

I have been scanning the countryside for Mullein and I found some today! I was so excited --- on a country lane in a fallow meadow growing here and there. I just took one even though there were many. I'll see if I can get it to grow in my garden. Cheers!

Really Love that your Beautiful Dogs are in almost Every Video. Following you everywhere cuz I know they are Very devoted fur babies!!

Synchronistically timed, as I just asked my friend what plant was on her deck, she said Our Lady's candle. Wait until I show her this Terri. Excellent!

Mullein grows along the roadsides here in southern Italy as well.

And to think that the mulleins that popped up in our yard, were my son’s absolutely favorite thing for a while! He did take such good care of that mullein. Neighbors were wondering about the strange tall plant sitting all by its lonesome out in the yard.I just wanted to pull it up out of the yard, and I did. Oh dear, guilty as charged. After all, I have to tell you they are still popping up and I will let some grow as tall as they are able! I have forwarded this video to my son and I am sure we will have yet another conversation about his lovely mullein! ❤️
