A compact, semi-evergreen perennial that showcases lance-shaped dark green leaves, and from early to late summer, upright spikes of nodding, bell-shaped flowers that are rich pink on the outside and pale pink to cream in the throats. Unlike most foxgloves, which have a short flowering season, 'Arctic Fox Rose' offers long-lasting blooms and flowers in its first year, making it a valuable addition to any cottage garden scheme.
How to care for Digitalis × fulva Arctic Fox Rose ('Balroxose') (PBR):
