Description
Mullein is a grass that spreads easily throughout the area due to the huge number of seeds carried by the wind. This plant is familiar, probably, to every person. Mullein is annual, biennial or perennial.
The leaves are simple, collected in basal rosettes. The buds, depending on the variety, are placed more or less densely on the spike-shaped inflorescence. Mullein flowers have the form of a five-membered corolla, they are painted most often in yellow, but again, depending on the variety, they can be white and even red. A lot of seeds ripen in boxes. In the wild, they are sown themselves, forming whole meadows of mullein.
Common mullein
The most common is common mullein. It is also popularly called the bear's ear. And this is just the beginning of a long list of different names for the same plant. In the nineteenth century, more than forty names of mullein were known. The most memorable are the hare's beard, Adam's rod, and the ice sheet. Because of the hairiness, he was also awarded such names as velvet, obscure, flannel and many others.
This species, unlike the others, has small flowers. This is why the common mullein is called small-flowered. In European reference books, it is listed as a large mullein, in North America- like a normal mullein. The plant is very useful and, one might say, famous. Perhaps this is the reason for such a variety of names.
Description of the common mullein
Bear's ear is a biennial, herbaceous plant. The stem of the mullein is erect with regular large oblong leaves.
Light yellow flowers are collected in a spike-shaped inflorescence 1.6-1.8 cm high. It blooms in June, flowering lasts the whole summer until the end of August. In its natural environment, it is found on forest edges, clearings, glades, slopes of ravines and near water bodies.
Growing on the site
The common mullein loves the sun and well-permeable soil, so if you decide to “settle” this doctor by nature on your site, then choose an appropriate sunny place for him.
Seeds can be sown in three terms: in early spring, summer and late August. In any of the three options, the mullein will have time to form a rosette before the onset of cold weather. If you plant a plant at the end of summer, then the outlet will be small, but this is not an obstacle to normal further development.
Mullein seeds are small, so they need to be sown with minimal incorporation into the ground, the recommended depth is 1 cm. There is no need to prepare the seed for planting. In order for the seedlings to sprout sooner, the bed must be watered, especially in the summer and in the absence of rain.
The first thirty days shoots develop very slowly. Caring for them consists in the timely removal of weeds and loosening the soil. Care must be taken not to form a crust on the surface of the earth. If the seedlings are too dense, then they should be broken through, leaving 14-18 plants per meter of row.

But this is not the main problem, more importantly, along with the beautiful coloring, the flowers lose a lot of their healing properties.
To avoid this, you need to collect raw materials in the late morning, when the sun dries the dew. At this time, you can easily separate the blossoming buds from the stamens that have grown to them. If you want to prepare good medicinal raw materials, try not to take flower cups. Drying is recommended in a ventilated area. Dried flowers are stored in well-closed containers. This is necessary so that they do not again gain moisture from the air.

For medicinal purposes, flowers are used, namely: corollas of flowers that are easily pulled out. They contain quite a lot useful substances including some essential oil. Collect flowers at the time full bloom in dry weather every day, because a blossoming flower lives only one day, and then crumbles (and is not suitable for medicinal purposes).
Fold the mullein flowers loosely in a basket or cardboard box. In a plastic bag, they suffocate, when dried, they darken and turn into useless raw materials.

And now let's talk about how to grow the royal scepter mullein, we will focus on seed method, as it is most often used by flower growers.
Growing mullein from seeds
Find an area in your dacha that is well lit by the sun. Since the flowers are not demanding on the soil, no manipulations, except for loosening, are necessary in the flower bed. The only condition is not to plant the mullein on too heavy and viscous soil.
The optimal time for sowing mullein in the garden is the end of May. The seeds of the mullein royal scepter are rather small, so they are not deepened into the soil, but only slightly sprinkled with a layer of soil so that the wind does not blow planting material throughout the territory. Plantings are not irrigated too abundantly with a watering can with a shower head. If the weather is favorable, sunny, then the sprouts will appear on about 15 days. As soon as this happens, the beds need to be thinned out. About 20-30 cm are left between plants. When thinning, remove the weakest flowers so that strong specimens remain.

When the flowers grow a little and get stronger, then you should not worry too much about watering either. The plant has a long straight rhizome, which allows extracting moisture from the deep layers of the soil. Seedlings will bloom only in the second year after planting.
IN further care for flowers means the removal of dried inflorescences. The plant gratefully accepts the procedure of loosening the soil around the stem. For the winter, after cutting, the mullein is covered with a layer of leaves and dry branches, and the places of cuts themselves are treated with crushed coal or peat.
Reproduction by dividing the bush
If there is a need to propagate flowers, then the easiest way to do this is by dividing the rhizome in the fall. The plant is carefully dug up, cut into 2-3 parts, after which the divisions are planted in the ground. The flower is resistant to pests, but it can get sick due to severe stagnation of moisture in the soil, as this provokes the development of fungal infections. Snails, slugs and caterpillars can disturb the rest of the plant, but there are various drugs that are sold in stores to combat them. flower shops.

Such tall flowers look great against the background of undersized representatives of the flora and, of course, the attention of passers-by and guests is focused on them. Due to the fact that growing and caring for mullein is not at all difficult, it is increasingly in demand among gardeners. Try and you sow the seeds of this flower in your country house. Then next summer you will enjoy the wonderful abundant flowering one and a half meter giant.
