Typically biennial or short-lived perennial in habit, it seeds freely and self-perpetuates in borders and woodland edges with great reliability. Its bold, upright presence brings height and drama to informal plantings, and it thrives in partial shade where few other flowering plants perform as well.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eOther benefits:\u003c\/b\u003e excellent vertical accent, self-seeds freely, naturalistic and cottage garden style, good cut flower\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eWildlife attraction:\u003c\/b\u003e long-tongued bumblebees are the primary pollinators, entering the spotted tubes to reach nectar deep within\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eHeight \u0026amp; spread (approx.) at 10 years:\u003c\/b\u003e 1.5m x 0.6m\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003ePosition:\u003c\/b\u003e full sun to partial shade; ideal in woodland gardens, shaded borders, and cottage plantings\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eSoil pH:\u003c\/b\u003e neutral to slightly acid; adaptable to most reasonably fertile, well-drained soils\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eMoisture:\u003c\/b\u003e moderate; prefers moisture-retentive but well-drained soil; tolerates drier conditions once established\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eWinter hardiness:\u003c\/b\u003e fully hardy to approximately -20°C throughout the UK\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Cedar Nursery Herbaceous","offers":[{"title":"2 litre","offer_id":54874803601786,"sku":"300311","price":18.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":false}],"url":"https:\/\/www.landscaping.co.uk\/products\/digitalis-purpurea","provider":"Cedar Nursery - Plants and Outdoor Living","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
