{"product_id":"col-9x6-dig-colx1","title":"Digitalis purpurea (Foxglove) – Hardy Cottage Garden Plant (12 x 9cm Pots)","description":"\u003cp\u003eFoxgloves give tall, dramatic flower spikes that bees love, and this collection brings you 12 Digitalis purpurea plants for a classic cottage garden look. You receive 12 plants, each in its own 9cm pot, ready to plant into borders and beds.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eFoxgloves are a British garden favourite, and they are hardy outdoors all year. They form a rosette of large, softly textured leaves, then send up elegant spires of spotted, bell-shaped flowers. Most foxgloves flower in their second year, then set seed and self-sow, so they come back year after year. They suit a shady border, a cottage-style planting scheme or a wilder, naturalised corner of the garden, and the flower spikes also last well when cut.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003ePlant them in partial or full shade in moist, well-drained soil, and water well after planting and during dry spells in the first season. Leave the spent flower heads to set seed for future seasons, or deadhead if you want to extend flowering. Flower colour varies across the collection, with classic shades of purple, pink, white and cream. If you need a specific colour, please check the individual variety listings.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eEvery part of a foxglove is highly poisonous if eaten, so plant with care and wash your hands after handling.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eCultural Information\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eCommon Name:\u003c\/strong\u003e Foxglove, Common Foxglove\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eBotanical Name:\u003c\/strong\u003e Digitalis purpurea\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eFully Grown Height and Spread:\u003c\/strong\u003e Approx. 100-150cm tall and 30-45cm wide (variety dependent)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eGrowth Habit:\u003c\/strong\u003e Upright, tall flower spikes above a basal rosette of leaves\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePerfect For:\u003c\/strong\u003e Cottage gardens, woodland borders, wildflower areas and shady borders\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eFoliage:\u003c\/strong\u003e Large, softly textured, mid-green basal leaves\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eFlowering Time:\u003c\/strong\u003e Late spring to midsummer\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eFlower Colour:\u003c\/strong\u003e Mixed purple, pink, white and cream\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePlanting Position:\u003c\/strong\u003e Partial shade to full shade\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eSoil Type:\u003c\/strong\u003e Moist, well-drained soil\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eHardiness:\u003c\/strong\u003e Fully hardy outdoors in Britain\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eSeasonal Interest:\u003c\/strong\u003e Spring to summer\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eType:\u003c\/strong\u003e Hardy biennial or short-lived perennial, often self-seeding to return each year\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"KOKE House","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":54061543948554,"sku":"COL-9X6-DIG-COLX1","price":21.99,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0957\/2479\/8218\/files\/5_4ca6e796-b569-4b91-91b1-085e9df11355.png?v=1793895404","url":"https:\/\/kokehouse.co.uk\/products\/col-9x6-dig-colx1","provider":"KOKE House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
