Mullein has a long history of innovative uses and folklore, with the dried leaves rolled up as candle wicks being one. Additionally, the entire dried flower stalks were soaked in flammable substances and used as torches. Mullein’s magical properties were considered numerous, and it was thought to attract love and instill courage and health.
Mullein, with its distinctive yellow blossoms, has been utilized for its healthful benefits for at least 2,000 years.
