Foxglove grows tall, elegant flowers and it makes a great addition to any home flower garden. It performs well in sun or part shade, and it will attract bees, butterflies and hummingbirds to the flower garden. Most fast-growing varieties are biennials that live for only two growing seasons, but some species can survive as perennials in some climates.

Foxglove asks only for rich, moist soil to begin blooming, and it is superb in borders, beds, and open woodland gardens. Space the Foxglove plants 12 - 18 inches apart. Sow Foxglove seeds outdoors directly into prepared soil in the spring after danger of frost has passed. Grows in almost any soil, except very wet or very dry, although prefers humus-rich soil in partial shade. Hummingbirds enjoy these beautiful flowers.
