Digitalis purpurea 'Apricot'

foxglove

Digitalis purpurea ‘Apricot Delight’ is an elegant foxglove variety with tall flower spikes filled with soft, warm apricot-coloured blooms. The bell-shaped flowers are subtly speckled on the inside and are closely packed along the upright stems, creating an impressive vertical accent in the garden.

This biennial plant typically flowers in its second year and thrives in sunny to partially shaded borders with nutrient-rich, well-draining soil. The flowers are highly attractive to bees and other pollinators.

‘Apricot Delight’ adds a soft, romantic hue to borders and combines beautifully with pastel shades, ornamental grasses, and natural plantings.

Caution: all parts of the plant are toxic if ingested. Despite its beauty, caution is therefore important, especially around children and pets.

Warning: Toxic. The buyer accepts all liability regarding the use of this product.

Hou de grond licht vochtig. Let daarbij wel op voor slakken die hiervan houden. 

Om meeldauw te voorkomen kan je best voldoende afstand tussen de planten aanhouden om zo luchtcirculatie toe te laten.
