4.5” Digitalis (Foxglove)

Elegant cottage garden blooms that bring timeless beauty and pollinator magic to your garden.

At Wrights Market, we love plants that feel like they belong in a storybook garden — and Digitalis, commonly known as Foxglove, is one of the most enchanting. With tall spires of bell-shaped flowers rising above lush green foliage, Digitalis adds graceful height and romantic charm to flower beds, cottage gardens, and shaded borders.

These striking blooms have been treasured in European gardens for centuries and are known for attracting bees, hummingbirds, and butterflies, bringing life and movement to your landscape.

🌸 Plant Story & Meaning
Digitalis has long symbolized healing, protection, and magic in traditional garden folklore. With its elegant towers of flowers, it creates a soft, whimsical look that feels right at home in a Southern garden or tucked along a garden path.

🌼 Bloom & Garden Beauty
Foxglove produces tall spikes of tubular blooms that open from the bottom upward, creating a long-lasting display through late spring and early summer. Colors often include shades of soft pink, lavender, cream, and white with delicate speckled throats.
