Digitalis 'Berry Canary' (P)

Digitalis 'Berry Canary' (P)

Our friends in America worked hard to produce a long flowering Digitalis valinii, sometimes known as Digiplexis. This tropical beauty has a more compact habit than "normal" Digitalis, with spikes of hot pink, creamy yellow and burgundy speckled throats borne all the way around the stems above the rosettes of large, glossy, dark green leaves.
