Digitalis ‘Dalmatian Rose’

Description

Better known as Foxglove, Digitalis is a classic summer-flowering perennial plant, and its easy to see why! This Dalmatian Rose variety is a striking example with its spires of attractive pastel pink-purple bell-shaped flowers. Tinged white and flecked inside, these blooms are a magnet for bees, butterflies and other welcome pollinators, turning your garden into a hive of activity.

Foxgloves are well-suited to growing in beds, borders, and pots, flowering from May to July. The flower spikes shoot up from a basal rosette of hairy lush green foliage that is semi-evergreen, providing colour and texture interest all year-round.

Dalmatian Rose is a hardy Foxglove that is low maintenance and easy to grow. It prefers a spot in full sun or partial shade and thrives in almost any moist soil, except those that are particularly dry or overly waterlogged. Water regularly until established, after which Foxgloves are relatively drought resistant. As the flowers fade, deadhead the spent blooms to prevent self-seeding and keep the plant looking its best.
