A stunning collection.
This product is currently out of stock and unavailable.




These showy plants are a striking addition to any garden and add a nice element of vertical colour. The foliage grows in a thick rosette, below the blooms. Foxgloves, or digitalis look best grouped toward the back of a bed, where the tall blossoms will brighten any spot. It is a vigorous, long blooming plant.
Foxglove blooms start to open at the bottom of the stalks and gradually move upward providing weeks of fantastic colour. They bloom for a month or more and are great for picking.
Plant Foxgloves into well drained soil, water in and keep moist in active growth. This short lived perennial sets viable seed which can be left to naturalise, or collected for sowing.
Our tip – if you are keen to cut the flowers and want to get the best longevity, cut them in the morning, when the florets are one third to half open.
The individual flowers are about the size and shape of a thimble. Fairies are said to have sewn gloves for foxes from their petals.
Foxglove Collection, one of each variety, separately labelled. Includes Pam’s Choice (biennial, fertile), Polkadot Princess (perennial, sterile), Pink Gin (biennial, fertile), Sugar Plum (biennial, fertile) and Polkadot Polly (perennial, sterile).
