Fothergill's Foxglove Excelsior Mixed Seeds

Details:

• Botanical Name: Digitalis purpurea, a beloved and traditional native woodland staple.
• Plant Class: Hardy Perennial, creating a reliable, long-term structure that frames your garden landscape year after year.
• Growth Habit: Reaches a dramatic and commanding height of 150cm (60in), making it the perfect choice for creating vertical interest at the back of borders or against rustic garden walls.
• Unique Flower Form: Unlike wild foxgloves where blooms hang to one side, the Excelsior strain carries its soft pastel-coloured bells all the way around the stem for a fuller, high-impact display.
• Sunlight Position: Thrives beautifully in a partial shade position, allowing you to easily illuminate dappled woodland spaces, orchard floors, or shaded boundary beds.
• Wildlife Friendly: Highly attractive to both bees and butterflies, providing a crucial and abundant source of nectar throughout the summer months.

Care & Growing Instructions:

• Sowing Position: Plant in moist, well-drained soil in a partially shaded or dappled area, allowing enough space for the tall spikes to mature without obstruction.
• Maintenance: A straightforward, low-maintenance plant; let the spent flower heads naturally drop their seed at the end of the season to ensure successive generations of beautiful blooms.
