Sow them in seed trays and start 'em off in the greenhouse. You'll end up
with several hundred foxgloves to plant or share. A very few will manage
to
make a flower spike in the first year but you'll have to wait for the
following season for the majority.
Be warned, though, that `they don't necessarily breed true, and over time
most will end up purple....

Guess that must be the original colour then....

All of my foxgloves invited themselves (and were welcomed with open arms!!)
over to my garden. A few are white and yes, most are purple.
