Fothergill's Foxglove Dottie Warm Rose F1 Seeds

Details:

• Botanical Name: Digitalis purpurea, a highly refined and versatile hybrid strain of our native country classic.
• Plant Class: Hardy Perennial, delivering an ongoing garden presence that remarkably bypasses the usual two-year wait to bloom.
• Growth Habit: Reaches a neat, manageable height of 60cm (2ft) with a well-branched, upright habit that requires no staking.
• Multi-Headed Display: Unlike wild foxgloves that carry a single stem, the branched structure of this variety produces multiple colourful and dramatic secondary flower spikes.
• Sunlight Position: Grows happily in partial shade or dappled shade, making it a reliable solution for bringing high-impact colour to shaded patio corners and woodland borders.
• Pelleted Seeds: The seeds are coated in a harmless, natural material that makes handling much easier, aiding precise sowing and thinning.
• Wildlife Friendly: Highly attractive to bees and hoverflies, making it an excellent choice for supporting beneficial garden insects.

Care & Growing Instructions:

• Sowing Position: Plant in moist, well-drained soil or high-quality compost inside a partially shaded area. For reliable first-year flowering, ensure seeds are sown early under cover.
• Handling Pelleted Seeds: Do not allow pelleted seeds to dry out completely after sowing, as consistent moisture is needed to dissolve the natural coating and trigger germination.
