New Foxglove Collection
- Good for Cutting
- Loved by Pollinators
- Self-sows
If I had to choose three flowers for a lightly shady spot it would be a mix of these foxglove spires, perhaps with the odd allium sphere scattered through. Their twists and turns, their fairy thimbles, their pollen and nectar-rich flowers combine to make them just THE BEST
- Digitalis purpurea 'Pam's Choice'
- Digitalis purpurea 'Sutton's Apricot'
- Digitalis purpurea f. albiflora
Autumn is the perfect season for planting out biennials, perennials, shrubs, and climbers. Soils retain some warmth from summer and moisture levels are on the rise thanks to the autumn rains. These conditions are ideal for quick and early root establishment ensuring plants settle in before winter arrives. They will then be off to a flying start next spring with rapid growth and copious amounts of flowers.
On occasion we may need to send you an alternative variety to the one shown, which will be selected by our growing team to ensure its suitability. It will be of equal or greater value to the original. Please contact our customer service team if there are any problems.
