Although foxgloves prefer a fertile, moist soil, they will happily tolerate almost any soil except those that are excessively dry or waterlogged. Grow in sun or partial shade. Digitalis obscura ‘Dusky Maid should be grown in full sun in well-drained soil with protection from hard frosts and excessive winter wet.
More Info Water foxglove plants regularly until fully established. Foxgloves self-seed freely. If seedlings are not wanted, deadhead stems of foxglove flowers as the blooms fade. In autumn, cut back old stems to encourage plenty of new side shoots. Caution: All parts of foxgloves are toxic if eaten, and contact with the foliage may irritate the skin and eyes.
Caution Caution: irritant to skin and eyes,toxic if eaten
