A fabulous inclusion in a garden with its tall, stately stems bearing soft, peach blooms. Digitalis purpurea ‘Apricot Beauty’ is the perfect plant for adding soft, subtle, vertical accents to the back of a border with flowers opening from the bottom of the stem upwards you will delight as you watch them, quite literally, ‘bloom and grow’ from June to August. Derived from our native common foxglove, which is so frequently seen bursting from roadsides, woodlands, and meadows across the country, Digitalis purpurea ‘Apricot Beauty’ possesses the same, familiar, one-sided spires of large, tubular flowers, along with the enchanting maroon spotting inside which acts as a beacon for pollinators who love these wide, open blooms. Classed as biennial, digitalis is generally so successful at self-seeding it behaves like a perennial, as long as you remember to leave a few seedlings untouched each year! Plants prefer humus rich, moist, well-drained soil of any kind except heavy clay. Position in
