Garden Uses:

Rusty Gigantea Foxglove is an outstanding choice for perennial borders, cottage gardens, pollinator gardens, naturalized landscapes, woodland edges, and architectural garden designs. Its tall flower spikes provide exceptional vertical accents among delphiniums, lupines, ornamental grasses, echinacea, salvias, yarrow, and Shasta daisies. The unusual bronze-colored flowers also make long-lasting additions to fresh and dried floral arrangements.

Growing Information:

Sow seeds on the surface of moist growing medium, as light aids germination. Maintain temperatures between 65-70°F and keep evenly moist until germination, which generally occurs within 14-21 days. Transplant carefully after seedlings develop several true leaves. Plants perform best in full sun to partial shade with fertile, well-drained soil rich in organic matter. Water regularly during establishment, but mature plants become moderately drought tolerant. Remove spent flower spikes after blooming unless seed production or natural reseeding is desired.

Its elegant bronze flower spikes provide outstanding height, remarkable pollinator activity, and a sophisticated appearance that fits beautifully into both formal and naturalistic perennial gardens.
