Foxglove

Foxgloves are striking focal points for both country and modern gardens. Originally native plants, they naturally grow in damp meadows, forest clearings, and bright woodland edges. Because of their origins, they thrive in both partial shade and sunny spots, provided they have access to ordinary, slightly moist loamy soil. Most of them grow as biennials or short-lived perennials. In the first year, they form a basal rosette of leaves, and only in the following season do tall stems emerge, studded with dozens of bell-shaped flowers. These bloom gradually from the bottom up, attracting plenty of pollinators. Furthermore, in flowerbeds, they serve as an excellent source of cut flowers for spring and summer bouquets. In a suitable habitat, they often persist for many years because they self-seed very readily. If you want to propagate them from your own seeds or those bought from us, our guide on how to sow will help you. For us, they are essential plants that add vertical structure and a natural look to every corner of the garden.

Foxglove Dalmatian White, Loukykvět

Digitalis purpurea

The 'Dalmatian White' foxglove is a majestic flower that will naturally bring the magic of forest clearings and light groves into your garden. Originally, it is a native species of Central Europe. In the garden, it thrives best in partial shade or in the sun, in well-drained and slightly moist loamy soil. It is a very undemanding plant avoided by pests and diseases, so even a beginner can easily manage growing it. You will receive a grown seedling in a pot from us, which just needs to be transplanted into the flower bed. It can handle severe frosts and grows as a short-lived perennial or biennial. In spring, it puts out sturdy stems, and from May to June, floods of pure white bell-shaped flowers open on them. These act as a great attraction for pollinators. In a suitable location, it reliably self-seeds, so you will not lose it. It is excellent for natural plantings, and its flowers are very popular for cutting into vases. They will stay fresh at home for six to eight days. Keep in mind, however, that all parts of the plant are poisonous.

Foxglove Dalmatian Rose, Loukykvět

Digitalis purpurea

The Dalmatian Rose cultivar brings an unmistakable charm to gardens with striking pink flowers on sturdy stems. Foxglove is a native species of Central Europe, seeking out moist meadows and forest glades. We have prepared a mature seedling in a pot for you, which you can easily transplant to the flowerbed. It suits sun and partial shade, and will most appreciate ordinary loamy and well-drained soil. It forms a basal rosette of leaves and in spring sends up stems up to one hundred and twenty centimeters tall. As a short-lived perennial, it self-seeds in a suitable location, so you will not lose it. The flowers bloom during May and attract bees, butterflies, and bumblebees from afar. It is an extremely undemanding plant without pests, surviving severe frosts around minus twenty-eight degrees. Since the entire plant is poisonous, it is mainly suitable for ornamental flowerbeds. It serves excellently for floristic purposes and in bouquets. Stems with bells stay fresh in a vase for six to eight days. This variety blooms abundantly right in its first year and has a very distinct pattern in the throat.

Foxglove Hanabee Deep Rose, Loukykvět

Digitalis purpurea

Foxglove flowers bring the magic of nature into gardens, and the Hanabee Deep Rose cultivar makes them an even more breathtaking spectacle. In the wild, you will most often find it on the light edges of forests and moist clearings of Central Europe. In the garden, it will appreciate similar conditions; it will grow well in sun and partial shade if you provide it with standard well-draining loamy soil. From us, you will receive an already mature seedling in a pot, which you just need to plant straight into the ground with a spacing of roughly forty centimeters. The plant first forms a basal rosette of leaves, and from it, tall stems dotted with bell-shaped flowers will shoot up. Even though it grows more like a short-lived perennial, in a suitable place it readily self-seeds, so you will enjoy it for long years. As with all foxgloves, the rule applies here that the entire plant is poisonous. The uniqueness of the Hanabee series lies in massive branching. Instead of a single stem, a dark pink fireworks display of flowers awaits you, which will reliably attract bees and bumblebees from far and wide at the beginning of summer. It can handle even severe frosts around minus twenty-eight degrees and does not suffer from diseases. It will perfectly complement the rear parts of mixed beds, and you can also harvest the blooming stems for a vase, where they will stay fresh and bring joy for roughly six to eight days.

Yellow Foxglove, Loukykvět
New

Digitalis lutea

Yellow foxglove is an elegant and persistent relative of the better-known purple foxglove. Unlike it, it is a truly long-lived perennial that will last in your garden for many years. It originally comes from the light forests and rocky hillsides of Western and Southern Europe, so it thrives best here in partial shade or shade, where it can beautifully illuminate darker corners with its pastel yellow flowers. It grows up to one meter tall and forms slender inflorescences full of tiny, lemon-colored tubular flowers. These are a great attraction for bumblebees and bees, who like to hide in the narrow calyxes. The plant is undemanding and frost-resistant, and will welcome humous and well-drained soil. The inflorescences are also suitable for cutting into vases, where they look very delicate and natural. Remember, however, that the entire plant is poisonous, so handle it with care.
