Digitalis ferruginea Yellow Herald


Rusty Foxglove

 USDA Zone: 4-9

Plant number: 1.190.140


(=‘Gelber Herold’) Foxgloves have long been popular plants for the perennial border. This is a rather unusual selection, featuring tall, towering wands of soft-yellow flowers in the summer months. Foliage is green, making a large rosette at the ground in the first year, followed by flowers in the second. Allow plants to set seed to encourage self sowing, since this usually behaves as a biennial. This makes a most unusual cut flower. CAUTION: Toxic if eaten.
