The white moth-mullein brushed its slim
     Cool, faery flowers against his knee;
In places where the way lay dim
     The branches, arching suddenly,
Made tomblike mystery for him.

From "Eidolons" by Madison Cawein

Moth Mullein is an especially pretty wildflower, with white or yellow blossoms on a tall stalk. Each one-inch flower has five rounded petals.  The purple stamens have hairy filaments, so that they look "fuzzy". The flowers are rather loosely spaced along the stalk, which can be up to 5 feet tall.
