A re-selection of a Suttons favourite of yesteryear, this foxglove has improved colour, flower size and vigour. Easy to grow, it will produce tall spikes with the classic tiers of apricot-pink tubular flowers that make it an outstanding ‘cottage garden’ plant. RHS Award of Garden Merit winner. (Please note: Seeds/plants toxic if eaten.) HB – Hardy biennial. Height 120-150cm (4-5′).
Tall and elegant flower spikes that add height to the border. I love that this variety will grow in partial shade too.
