Foxgloves in a hurry! Now you can know when your foxgloves are going to bloom – in 1-2 months after you plant them with this unique ‘Camelot’ series of Digitalis! What’s more, they re-bloom after being cut! And just you wait for the second year when it explodes with even bigger, better and more awe-inspiring flowers over a long bloom season (late Spring thru Summer). To 3-4’ tall, the raspberry-cerise bell flowers are horizontally held, the better to see their cute spotted throats. You’ll get hummers, butterflies, cut flowers and no deer. Compost amended soil. Self-sows reliably, but fyi - they are F-1 Hybrids and so do not come true when they self sow.
