Previously I posted about a daffodil that has appeared and flowered in
our garden - at least 5 yrs after I last threw daffy bulbs into the soil
(here) and now we've a self-sown Foxglove in flower.
I planted foxgloves over 20yrs ago - but although I love the look of
them, I haven't planted foxys since (was being cautious about the
digitalis - read too many Agatha Christies in my youth.) Foxgloves are
biennials and over the years there have been large leafed 'weeds' which
I've usually pulled out but this year I was lazy / busy and one of the
'weeds' has flowered ... proving itself to be a foxglove!! Really love those spots.
