    Anyone have any experience planting Digitalis [Foxglove] the Camelot strain? I saw it advertised after the Chelsea Flower Show a few years ago and bought some just now. I have moved a small wall to accommodate them because they grow to 120cm high and 75 cm wide - question is are they perennial or biennial? The Garden Centre said biennial as far as they know but the tag says perennial and a Google search was just as confusing.

    Well they are biennials but sometimes if the conditions are right they last another year or two. But they self-seed and put up new plants so in effect if you are willing to leave the seedlings grow you could regard them as perrenial. Just thin out the seedlings and try to get used to what they look like as opposed to weed seedlings that might grow in among them.
