Plant Features

Camelot® Cream Digitalis Plants offer gorgeous spikes creamy, freckled blooms on sturdy stems over a long bloom time. Foxgloves grow best in moist, well-drained soils. They can be grown in full sun in the north but prefer afternoon shade in southern gardens. Camelot Cream is a biennial, so it will need to self-seed after the second year to continue growing. Digitalis plants are attractive to hummingbirds and bumblebees and make striking cut flowers. Deer and rabbits tend to avoid them. The Camelot variety is known to re-bloom when cut back.

Our Digitalis Plants are carefully grown without harmful pesticides, ensuring they are a safe and striking addition to your garden. Guaranteed to arrive healthy and ready to thrive!

Excellent Customer Service

One of the Cream Digitalis plants was very wilted upon arrival and has since died. I contacted GrowJoy, sent photos and was issued a prompt refund. Very pleased with the customer service.

Foxglove thriving

Very happy with this plant. It arrived in great condition and is thriving. Am anxious to see it bloom. Very pleased with Grow Joy and will order again and would recommend them to anyone looking for good plants for a great price.
