Digitalis purpurea 'Dalmatian Peach'
Best vertical accent for gardeners seeking low-maintenance, self-seeding woodland blooms.
Digitalis purpurea 'Dalmatian Peach', or Foxglove, presents a stunning display of creamy peach blossoms delicately tinged with pink, which deepen in hue as the season unfolds. These striking plants provide dramatic vertical interest in any garden and often bloom in their initial year of planting. While typically short-lived perennials, they readily self-seed, ensuring a continuous presence. Adaptable to sun or partial shade, they are well-suited for woodland settings and are also excellent for cutting.

Know before you buy
Yes, 'Dalmatian Peach' is specifically bred to bloom in its first season, unlike many traditional Foxglove varieties that require a full year of growth before flowering.
While these are typically short-lived perennials, they are prolific self-seeders. If you allow the spent flower stalks to remain in the garden until they drop their seeds, you will likely see new plants emerge in the same spot each spring.
Absolutely. These plants thrive in both full sun and partial shade, making them an excellent choice for woodland gardens or areas with dappled light.
Yes, their tall, upright spikes make them ideal for cut flower arrangements. For the longest vase life, harvest the stems when about two-thirds of the individual florets on the spike have opened.
They perform best in well-drained soil that has been enriched with organic matter. Ensure the planting site does not stay waterlogged, as consistent moisture is preferred over soggy conditions.
Space your plants 12 inches apart. This allows for adequate air circulation while still creating the dense, dramatic vertical display Foxgloves are known for.
