The name foxglove is said to have arisen from a story about playful fairies, wanting to help the wily foxes. Theyslipped a foxglove over each paw and ever since, the fox has had the attribute of stealth. Excellent for cutting - lasting 7-10 days in a vase, although you may not wish to deprive the passing wildlife of a nectarrich feast. Deadhead as each flower is spent to encourage more flowers and promote seed production for self-seeding in the second year. Fully hardy and biennial perennials. Height 30cm-1.2m, spread 30-60cm. Your order is covered by our No Quibble Guarantee and will be confirmed together with a copy of our latest catalogue.
