Verbascum
''Verbascum'' (〔''Sunset Western Garden Book'', 1995:606–607〕), common name mullein (sg. ) (also known as velvet plant), is a genus of about 360 species〔(【引用サイトリンク】url=http://www.verbascum.org/ )〕 of flowering plants in the figwort family Scrophulariaceae. They are native to Europe and Asia, with the highest species diversity in the Mediterranean.
Mullein or "mullein leaf" often refers to the leaves of ''Verbascum thapsus'', the great or common mullein, which is frequently used in herbal medicine.〔(【引用サイトリンク】url=http://www.verbascum.org/ )〕
==Description==
They are biennial or perennial plants, rarely annuals or subshrubs, growing to tall. The plants first form a dense rosette of leaves at ground level, subsequently sending up a tall flowering stem. Biennial plants form the rosette the first year and the stem the following season. The leaves are spirally arranged, often densely hairy, though glabrous (hairless) in some species. The flowers have five symmetrical petals; petal colours in different species include yellow (most common), orange, red-brown, purple, blue, or white. The fruit is a capsule containing numerous minute seeds.
