Digitalis ferruginea 'Gigantea' (Rusty Foxglove)

125 seeds $3.75  

Digitalis ferruginea 'Gigantea' has soft tan-yellow flowers with rusty-brown veins. It stands like a tall exclamation point in the garden. 

Rusty Foxglove grows well in  part shade , and it's not too picky about the soil. I have a patch growing in the shade of an old blue spruce - almost the worst conditions you can imagine. This species thrives and reseeds there. 

Digitalis ferruginea 'Gigantea' is a biennial or short-lived perennial. Hardy in zones 4-9. Deer resistant. Also see  Digitalis ferruginea 'Gelber Herold' .
