So many foxgloves have popped up in my garden this year, here, there and everywhere. All just the basic pink ones apart from a couple of small white ones, seeds that have germinated from a white one of a couple of years ago.
I do love the height they add like exclamation marks in the basic writing of the garden..:))

Thank you Julia, yes very exciting when winter has seemed so wet and long and these spires start to grow..:)
Well thank you Shirley, :))
Good idea Karen, you'll be able to plant them out in the autumn for next spring.
They are Ange, I've always had cottage garden style, even in the Spanish garden, it was Spanish cottage garden style!

You still need an eye to make it work, rather than an unholy mess, Janey. You have that knack.

Aw that's a lovely thing to say, thanks Ange..:)
I'm sure you'll find many spots in your garden to plant your foxgloves and they'll look great!

Just catching up Janey after my holiday.
I too love to see the foxgloves but don't seem to have many this year.

Thank you Balc, yes especially the solitary bees enjoy them.
Oh yes, I hope you really enjoyed it Rose. You've not many foxgloves and I've too many! Can save you some seeds, if you'd like?
