|discussion=<p>In the flora area, Verbascum phlomoides is known from a single location each in Manitoba (near Roseisle) and Saskatchewan (near Moose Jaw). The record for Washington possibly is only a waif (King County, Seattle, in waste ground, introduced from Europe, 12 September 1936, W. J. Eyerdam s.n., SMU), because it apparently has not been recorded there since.</p><!--
--><p>Verbascum ×kerneri Fritsch is a hybrid between V. phlomoides and V. thapsus.</p>
