Sowing Foxgloves (Digitalis)

  • I sowed my foxglove seeds in October in a cold greenhouse and now they are ready to be planted outside in the wild area. They seem to be very easy to germinate so I don't think you will have any problems with sowing the seed now JerryBone, but as Lilysilly says do sow thinly.

    JerryBone,

    The seeds were Sarah raven

    I just got them going, raised them really tough and hard during first autumn, planted in spring into my heavy clay and they went berserk!

    By the sounds of it I should have nothing to worry about, thank you all very much. 

    Mine are also Sarah Raven and after checking they are 'alba' ones just like yours image

    Nut.. Did your Chinese foxgloves germinate, I have lots of them, all potted on.

    Jeff gave me some as well, so should be a good show and hopefully they will spread next year by themselves.
