Rehmannia Elata (chinese foxglove) (rehmannia elata)

Another plant grown from seed last year, I planted all these out last summer before remembering they weren't completely hardy, thank goodness for a mildish winter, they all survived and are doing great in the wood, only about 2ft tall but quite large flowers.

Karen I belong to another garden site called gardenerscorner, and did a swap with a member on there think their seed originally came from the RHS seed scheme.
