Insights
The elegant spires of this hardy foxglove are more compact than some, reaching 60cm in height: perfect for the middle of a sunny border. The individual coloured flowers that graduate up the stem flare gently at the end displaying the deep purple spotty markings that give the plant its name.

Care
The main foxglove flower is called the ‘king’ flower; cut this back after flowering to encourage lower shoots to bloom, but before doing so allow the bees to do their busy work. Highly toxic by ingestion. Wear gloves and wash hands after handling.
