Foxglove
Digitalis purpurea
Key characteristics
Erect, rosette-based biennial or short-lived perennial.
In its second year, each plant produces a single flower stalk, up to 2 m tall.
Attractive pinkish purple or white flowers are arranged on a long, one-sided, tapering spike. Each flower is a nodding, tubular ‘bell’ up to 5 cm long, with dark purplish spots inside.
Rosette leaves are green, downy, finely wrinkled on the upper surface, grey and woolly underneath. Leaves are oval or lance-shaped, up to 25 cm long by 12 cm across, with bluntly-toothed margins. Rosette leaves have stalks but leaves on the flowering stem are stalkless or almost so.
