🌸 Foxglove Seeds (Digitalis purpurea) produce magnificent tall flowering plants with elegant purple spotted tubular blooms arranged on impressive vertical spikes. This classic cottage garden favorite creates spectacular displays in borders, woodland gardens, shaded landscapes, and naturalized plantings while attracting bees, bumblebees, and other beneficial pollinators.
The graceful flower spikes rise well above the leafy rosettes, creating a dramatic architectural feature from late spring through summer. Flower colors range from pink and cream to rich purple with beautifully spotted throats that guide pollinating insects deep into each blossom.

☀️ Growing Conditions
Grow in full sun, partial shade, or light shade using fertile, moist, humus rich, well drained soil. Plants perform best where the soil remains evenly moist without becoming waterlogged.
🌾 Sowing Instructions
Sow seeds from mid spring through summer directly onto the surface of moist compost. Do not cover the seeds because light is required for germination. Maintain temperatures between 15 and 20°C. Germination usually occurs within 14 to 28 days. Harden seedlings gradually before planting outdoors after the final spring frost.
🌿 Care and Maintenance
Water regularly during establishment and remove weeds around young plants. Mature plants require little maintenance and frequently self seed naturally. Remove spent flower spikes if self seeding is not desired.
⚠️ Important Notes
Warning: All parts of Digitalis purpurea are poisonous if eaten. Wear gloves when handling plants or seeds and keep them away from children and pets. This species is grown strictly as an ornamental plant.
