The Strawberry Foxglove ? A True Perennial!
Strawberry Foxglove
Masses of blooms on sturdy 3-foot spikes!
Evergreen foliage!
Year-round beauty! This unusual and brilliantly colored perennial Foxglove is a delight in the garden in any season, for its bright green foliage remains evergreen! In late spring and early summer, abundant buds open to luscious blooms the color of crushed strawberries. They are so freely borne that the flowers crowd one another on the sturdy 3-foot stalk, overlapping for a very full, ultra-colorful look. And because the buds open from the bottom of the plant up, the topmost are still closed when the lower flowers are in full bloom, increasing the color show of every stem!
Foxglove is easy to grow from seed. Situate it in full sun (in Northern climates) or partly shade (in the South). Long-lived and trouble free, it asks only rich, moist soil. Superb in borders, beds, and wildflower gardens. Space 12 to 15 inches apart. Pkt is 100 seeds.
