Mullein, verbascum

The delphiniums are just about over and so are the foxgloves. The verbascums are coming into their own now alongside some other perennials.
Today is freedom day in England- restrictions lifted. No social distancing, masks not legally required, workers working from home are advised they can go back to the office, meet as many people as we want.
There are over 25000 thousand cases in the past week. The average daily rate is over 40000. Yesterday's case rate was over 44000- I went shopping today and everyone was wearing a mask.
