Foxglove (B)
Digitalis purpurea
Perennial. Hardy in zones 4-9.
Start inside 8-10 weeks before planting out. Sow seed on surface, provide light and cool conditions, 16°C (60°F), or direct seed outside after last frost for blooms the following year. Transplant outside 2 weeks before last frost into a full sun to light shade location 18" apart. Provide some shade in areas with hot summers. Must not be allowed to dry out. If you remove the first flowering stalks before the seeds set, the plants may rebloom in mid-summer. Either let plants go to seed or add fresh seed each year to keep foxgloves in your garden.
