Description
Digitalis ‘Summer King’ is a stunning perennial foxglove known for its tall spikes of vibrant, deep reddish-pink tubular flowers that bloom from early to mid-summer. Unlike traditional biennial foxgloves, this variety is more reliably perennial, offering long-lasting color in borders, cottage gardens, and pollinator-friendly plantings. Its striking blooms attract bees and hummingbirds, while its strong, upright habit provides elegant vertical interest. Summer King thrives in full sun to partial shade and prefers well-drained, nutrient-rich soil. With its bold color and graceful form, it makes a standout addition to any garden.
Digitalis forms large rosettes of downy, green, oblong leaves from which numerous flower spikes emerge. It looks especially nice when planted along fences, at the wood’s edge, or in large containers.
