'Dalmatian Purple' Foxglove

Huge bell-shaped purple flowers will fill your landscape when you plant 'Dalmatian Purple' Foxglove. This foxglove is strong and vigorous, so much so it won the Fleuroselect Gold Medal for its blooming power. Foxglove (Digitalis) is a long-blooming cottage garden favorite that is an absolute magnet for pollinators, but deer make sure to stay away. Unlike some foxglove varieties, 'Dalmation Purple' is a true perennial that blooms year after year, unlike many biennial foxglove varieties that only bloom in their second year. Lucky for us (and the pollinators), 'Dalmation Purple' blooms in its first year!
