  • How curious, Nutimage

    Presumably if the other seeds produce the same it would be a genetic mutation?

    Just the one would make a genetic mutation  Then the next generation would show if it persisted.

    I think I'll be waiting til next year to find out though, all the rest are behaving in a normal digitalis manner, lots of leaves, no sign of a flower spike.

    My money is on fasciationimage

    bekkie it doesn't creep me out but I don't find it attractive

    Interesting but ugly. But I have to admit that goes for a lot of those very large flowered things we find offered nowimage

  • I know what you mean, Bekkie, I wouldn't want a garden full of them but they are interesting in a carnival of horrors sort of way.image

    That grandiflora looks like a nice foxglove...I haven't seen one before.

    Grandiflora is nice VS, and fairly perennial in my experience.
