    • Why we like this plant

    • About this plant

      Part of the Dalmatian Series, Digitalis purpurea 'Dalmatian White' is a compact and fast-growing foxglove, blooming reliably in its first year. It produces tall, upright spikes covered in pure white, bell-shaped flowers with delicate speckled throats, creating a refined and elegant display from late spring to midsummer. This variety is particularly loved for its uniform growth and shorter stature, making it perfect for smaller gardens, borders, and container planting. Highly attractive to bees and other pollinators, it thrives in partial shade but will also grow in full sun with adequate moisture. Like all foxgloves, it is highly toxic if ingested, so caution is advised around children and pets.
