series: collection 2 foxgloves

foxglove (common name)
digitalis purpurea (latin name)

the foxgloves in our garden are self seeded, probably from the hedgerows around here. in the summer, the headland down by the beach here is scattered with them everywhere. this year we left the foxgloves in our garden until all the pretty pink bells had fallen off, and the spikes had formed their little seedpods, then cut a few stems for a vase in our house. a few seedheads that had fallen off were perfect for a little white bowl on our windowsill.
