Digitalis purpurea
Pink Foxglove is a classic cottage garden favourite known for its tall, stately spires lined with tubular, bell-shaped blooms in soft to vibrant shades of pink. The flowers are often delicately speckled inside, adding intricate detail and charm. Blooming in early to mid-summer, foxgloves create dramatic vertical interest and attract bees and hummingbirds.
This elegant plant brings height, romance, and old-world beauty to borders, woodland gardens, and naturalized settings.
Planting Instructions
Indoor Sowing:
- Start seeds 8–10 weeks before last frost
- Surface sow — do not cover seeds, as light aids germination
- Keep soil consistently moist
- Germination: 14–21 days
- Provide bright light after emergence
- Transplant outdoors after danger of frost
Direct Sowing Outdoors:
- Sow in late spring or early summer
- Press seeds gently into soil surface
- Keep evenly moist until established
Note: Pink Foxglove is typically biennial (foliage first year, flowers second), though some plants may behave as short-lived perennials.
