Tell Me More...
With tall, stately stems bearing soft, peach blooms, Digitalis purpurea 'Apricot Beauty' is the perfect plant for adding subtle, vertical accents to the back of a border. Derived from our native common foxglove seen bursting from roadsides, woodlands, and meadows across the country, 'Apricot Beauty' possesses the same, familiar, one-sided spires of large, tubular flowers, complete with maroon spotting inside. We send these out as second year biennials, meaning they are in the final, flowering year of their two-year life cycle. Despite being classed as biennial, digitalis is generally so successful at self-seeding as to appear perennial (providing enthusiastic weeders remember to leave a few seedlings untouched each year). Prefers humus rich, moist, well-drained soil in partial shade (though will tolerate full sun, and almost any soil apart from very wet or very dry). H&S: 1.5m x 45cm. Hardy biennial.
