I *WISH* some of you would come to my farm and harvest the mullein!!!!!
I hack, I hew, I brush-hog, I dig ... you can't get rid of the stuff
... NOTHING eats it ... its not toxic, just thick and hairy and
incredibly resistant to drought and non-soils.
It sucks up any water and good stuff in the "soil" and prohibits
anything else from growing in its vicinity.
Can you tell I hate it?
And I love it. Someone told me a long time ago that the Indians used
the leaves for diapers -- don't know whether it's true or not but I
like the idea -- what you call hairy is really pretty soft and
smooth. And I like the blossoms too. Is it the green leaves that
Katy drys? I'll have to try it. Mary
I dry it.
