Beautiful foxglove – dark maroon throat markings and speckles, balance of flower outside is white; Still growing, did not flower.

None listed by participants.

Year 2

Grown digitalis for years without problems but these plants died. It was a very cold winter without snow cover. Many perennials did not survive for commercial growers or homeowners.

Comments

Year 1

All vegetative growth, 12 inches high; Grown from seed to flower for 2 years, this info is based on this fact, why would one want to buy plants, easy to grow from seed and are biennials; Nice color, maybe will have longer stems next year.
