Very striking. I get a mullein from my sister every spring, much to her dismay. In her climate they grow as field weeds and she is always encouraging me to get one of the prettier cultivated varieties. But, I like the large fuzzy leaves and strapping seed stalk of the common mullein, which fits in well with my other rather robust herbs. It doesn't reseed for me so each spring we go out into her pasture searching for a nice sized weed for me to bring home.
