Mullein

The mullein plants in my garden are beginning to blossom.

I love the way the hairs on the leaves hold the raindrops.

  2. Mullein is considered a weed here, but I let them grow where they want anyway because I love them and all of their stateliness. The droplets of water are interesting.

  3. We encourage our mullein as well. They are so beautiful. I also love the way their hairs hold the raindrops - as you show so beautifully!

  4. Another good herbal--it is an exotic invasive weed, but the flowers make a healthful tea.

  5. Do you use a macro lens for these shots? I am interested in macro photography but am not able to get close enough with my current lens which has a proximity limit of 30cm.
