1 Digitalis Hanabee Deep Rose Foxglove Plant, Bee Friendly Hardy Perennial, 3 Litre Root Ball
Digitalis Hanabee Deep Rose Foxglove Plant
The Digitalis Hanabee Deep Rose is a stunning compact foxglove that brings rich, deep rose-pink blooms to your garden. Part of the innovative Hanabee series, this variety has been specifically bred with pollinators in mind. Its unique outward-facing, open bell-shaped flowers provide easy access for bees and other beneficial insects, making it a wonderful addition to any wildlife-friendly garden.
Unlike traditional foxgloves, which are typically biennial, the Hanabee Deep Rose is a true hardy perennial, returning year after year with reliable floral displays. Its compact, bushy growth habit makes it equally suited to borders, cottage garden schemes, and container planting. The densely packed flower spikes are adorned with beautifully spotted throats, adding depth and character to each bloom.
Supplied as an established plant in a 3 litre root ball, ready for planting out into beds, borders, or a generously sized container.
