hello, my foxgloves are all getting ready to flower however, one started before all the others but this one flowered from the top down , with a beautiful large flower different to all the other buds right at the top. It is no different to all the other and wondered if anyone knew why this had happened?

It is a mutation, called a peloric Foxglove.
