Digitalis purpurea 'Gloxiniiflora', a variety of foxglove, is a striking biennial known for its tall, flowering spikes and colorful, bell-shaped blossoms. This cultivar features upright stems with green foliage, and produces prominent flower spikes adorned with blooms in shades of red and pink. Its tall stature and vibrant flowers make it a notable addition to garden borders and naturalized settings, adding vertical interest and a touch of classic garden charm. It belongs to the Plantaginaceae family.

Origin: Digitalis purpurea is native to Europe. The 'Gloxiniiflora' cultivar is a cultivated variety chosen for its specific flower characteristics.

Light: Digitalis purpurea 'Gloxiniiflora' thrives in locations with partial shade to full sun. It can adapt to shadier conditions, though flowering might be less abundant.

Water: Regular watering is important, especially during dry spells. Care should be taken to avoid overwatering, as this can lead to root problems.

Soil: This plant is adaptable to various soil types, provided they are well-drained. Enriching the soil with organic matter is beneficial.

Fertilising: Generally, a balanced fertilizer applied in the spring is sufficient. Excessive fertilizing is not typically needed.
