How To Grow

Good pest and disease resistance

Digitalis have generally good pest and disease resistance but can have issues with aphids or powdery mildew. If you see aphids, pick them off by hand and spray the infected area with some soapy water. You can also plant a companion plant nearby such as Marigolds. These will attract predatory insects such as ladybirds. To prevent powdery mildews, you should space apart the plants adequately to prevent overcrowding and tight, humid conditions. Water at the base into the soil, not on the leaves, and try to prevent the water splashing off the soil and onto the leaves.

Water regularly in summer

Foxgloves thrive in moist soil so you must ensure the ground does not dry out. During hot and dry periods this could require you having to water the plant as much as once a day in mid-summer.

Full sun to partial shade

Foxgloves do equally well in sun or partial shade - ideally they should receive at least 4-6 hours of sunlight daily

Any moist, well-drained soil

Plant in any moist, well-drained soil. If your soil is particularly poor or clay heavy, add some garden compost with perlite to improve drainage.

Feed lightly

Feed every spring with a balanced granular plant food ?v=1613300718
