Digitalis obscura
A small species reminiscent of a penstemon in flower, the wiry stems produce many coppery brown flowers marked orange, some times darker red. Evergreen with small slender leaves. Full sun, dry soils or pot grown 40cm, comes true from seed.
50 seeds.
The seed we offer can be sown anytime from January to September. Sowing between January and April will require slight warmth (15°C to 21°C) to maintain germination. Later sowings from April to September will not require artificial heat, they will require protection from sudden downpours or extremes of temperature. Seed trays may dry out more easily in summer sun. Further detailed sowing information is sent with the seeds.
