Description

This foxglove has small pearl grey flowers speckled with gold and brown. These merge with the grey to give a mocha cream colour, which is a very useful palette for the cut flower arranger as it blends well with other flowers. The flowers are produced on straight stiff stems and the plant itself produces many spikes in its second year from seed.

Note : All parts of this plant and also the seeds are poisonous to animals and children.
