Insights
Some people believe the name ‘foxgloves’ comes from the tale of fairies placing the floral trumpets on fox paws to mask the sound of their footsteps when hunting, leaving their own fairy footprints inside the blooms. It’s a magical cottage garden staple that provides colour, height and interest to any garden.
