Chocolate Digitalis

[Billy]

I received an offer of a free "chocolate" digitalis from Thompson and Morgan Nursery with a minimum order. I donno, is it just me? A "brown flowered" foxglove doesn't sound all that ornamental. It sounds psychotic.

I wonder which species this is, as there are several brown flowered foxgloves:

are elegant rather than showy. If you don't want them, maybe someone else will take them off you.

Thanks for that, the netting is quite smalland may be the cause of the problem, i will remove it and see how it goes and hope its not to late. Now how do i keep the dam pigeons away. would be a great help if my neighbour stopped putting food out for them....pesky things.

I'd have to buy something first, and this isn't gonna induce me to. Brown flowers! If they were dry, it would be the joys of times past. To me, brown just sets the bar too low for rejoicing. Too contemplative to stir my emotions. Chacun a son goût. I dunno,

looks OK but my foxgloves are a light burgundy and white against a retaining wall of violets.

I'm glad that you see my point but you don't seem to be understanding the words that are coming out of my keyboard;-)
