Digitalis purpurea ‘Dalmatian Peach’
Digitalis purpurea 'Dalmatian Peach' is a common foxglove with peach-tone flowers and orange speckled throats.
Digitalis purpurea ‘Dalmatian Peach’ is a common foxglove loved by hummingbirds and pollinators alike for its soaring spikes of pendulous, funnel-shaped flowers that bloom profusely from early to mid summer. An award-winner, this cultivar displays flowers in soft peach tones with orange speckled throats with a more compact habit of 16-20 inches tall by 12-14 inches wide. The spires branch well into multiple spires atop low-growing downy, green oblong leaves. Very easy to grow in beds and borders and awesome in drifts. Requires well-drained soil and average to medium moisture. Deer and rabbit tolerant. A biennial or short-lived perennial that will often reseed.
