Nov 28 2018 Foxglove Digitalis purpurea bears spikes of dainty flowers on a 2-to 5-foot-tall plant. I trimmed it down in the fall. Foxglove actually relies on the dead blooms to reseed itself so do not remove them.
Place the plant in the hole with the top of the root ball level with the soil surface.
They simply become top-heavy especially after a heavy rain. If there is a dry period in the summer and it hasnt received 1 inch of rain in a week or the top 2 inches of soil is dry water the plant with a drip hose. When your foxgloves topple over it isnt because youve done anything wrong. Foxgloves give us digitalin a glysoside used to treat heart disease and this powerful plant has been used for heart tonics since Celtic and Roman times.
