Is it me or are the foxgloves extra tall this year.
We have one nudging 8ft, and several near 7ft. regards Tom |

Bur the season seems to galloping this year - the bluebells are only just finished, but already the mock orange is out - mock orange is usually an end- July event for me. -- Kay Easton Edward's earthworm page: http://www.scarboro.demon.co.uk/edward/index.htm |

Some are about six feet (2 metres) tall but others are two to four foot tall. I thought that perhaps the tall ones are a special variety? My foxgloves were all started three years ago with a packet of 'wild foxglove' seeds and a packet of tall, multicoloured varieties, both packets from B&Q. Joe. -- |
