Foxglove (Digitalis Purpurea Dalmatian Purple) - Uniform in height only growing 16 - 20 inches tall and early flowering, this fully first year-flowering perennial is well-branched with excellent habit and compact foliage, and produces strong purple flower colors on good-quality spikes. The Dalmatian series improves with greater vigor, better uniformity, and an earlier bloom time. This Fleuroselect Gold Medal winner produces large spikes of outward facing, lilac purple flowers with maroon spotted throats on sturdy, upright stems in early summer.
To grow Digitalis Purpurea from flower seed begin with rich, moist soil. Space the Foxglove plants 12 inches apart. Sow Foxglove seeds outdoors directly into prepared soil in the spring after danger of frost has passed in full sun or partial shade.
