Mullein Witch's Torches - 7"
Mullein torches (also known as witch's torches or hag torches) at their simplest are dried mullein stalks dipped in wax. For my seasonal version, I have homegrown the verbascum thapsus stalks, dipped them in 100% beeswax, and rolled them in an enchanting combination of rose petals, lavender, and pink yarrow, ALL from my garden. Burning mullein gives off an herbaceous sage-like smoke complemented by the honeyed scent of beeswax and flower petals. To burn, place in a candleholder or outside in a fire-safe location (like sand or a fire pit), clip the end, light it. **PLEASE NOTE THAT THESE ARE SMALL TORCHES, AND WILL CREATE A LARGER FLAME THAN A CANDLE. BURN WITH INTENTION, OUTSIDE OR IN A VENTILATED AREA.** Measures approx. 7" long (9" with stem).
