Digitalis purpurea



7th June 2009


Foxgloves are a beautiful and common part of the local flora and seedlings turn up in every part of the garden. Usually I weed them out, and I always try to remove them before they seed, but there are always plenty that manage to flower before I get around to doing something about them.

A thick crusting of frost emphasises its beauty though once I stop pretending to be a fluffy aesthete I will admit the neither is actually welcome.

I weed them out whenever I can so my admiration for the display is expressed through gritted teeth.
