Notes
'Dalmatian White' foxglove (Digitalis purpurea 'Dalmatian White') is a perennial for borders, pollinator gardens, and cottage gardens. It is hardy to USDA zone 5, or down to -20°F (-29°C). This plant likes full or part sun and average to moist soil of most types. Deer and rabbits usually look elsewhere for a meal. It forms a clump and blooms in spring and again in summer. Butterflies, hummingbirds, bees, and birds visit the flowers.
Pairs well with Coral Charm peony, Casa Blanca lily, Nelly Moser clematis, and Autumn Frost hosta.
