That kind of mutation makes my skin crawl, my teeth itch and brings up a wish never to see such a photo again. Fasciation causes this, and trypophobia which seems be getting stronger as I age. It's something to do with rotting, disease, mutation - such a visceral response; Not very helpful in my life. Even polka dot patterns on a dress feel unpleasant.
I had some that did that a few years ago. I pulled them up, they lack the style of the proper plant and I didn't know if it could be passed on through seeds
As fasciation goes it is a stunner. Many other types of fasciation look much creepier. I prefer the regular foxglove, so neither option describes my feelingto towards this. I wonder if fasciation traits like this may in rare circumstances be carried over to the next generation via seeds.

It's not fasciation it's pelorism. Radially symmetrical flowers on plants that usually are not, seems to be common with Foxgloves
