If anyone succeeds in getting digitalis to flower 2 years in a row, I want seed and detailed info on the conditions! We could have something in that case!

A lot of my Digitalis purpurea blooms 2 years in a row. A few years ago I digged up 2 plants in de woods here (purple), it's a native here. The next year appeared also 2 white ones and a lot of purple ones and now I have about 30 plants white, pink, purple.
When I cut of the flowerstems before they set seed, they will most times rebloom in the 3rd year. You can predict it on looking if fresh leaves are formed after blooming. If you want I'll send you seeds.
