Foxglove Digitale Multicolor Seeds | Tall Biennial Spikes

Digitale Multicolor is a biennial foxglove producing tall elegant spikes of tubular flowers in a rich mix of colours. A classic in Irish cottage gardens. The tall spikes attract bumblebees who climb inside the bell-shaped flowers to feed.

Sow in spring or summer, and it will flower the following year. Self-seeds readily, so once you have foxgloves in the garden, you will always have foxgloves. The vertical presence is perfect for the back of a border.
