Sally, I lost a large tree two years ago. It was gorgeous and cast lots of shade.
After it was removed, the silver lining was a morning sun and an afternoon
shady spot right in the middle of my woods. As I have lots of deer visit my
garden, it seemed to me the perfect spot for foxglove. Last year I planted
some, lost some, but this year those that remained doubled in size and bloomed.

HollyAnn, I couldn't agree more. I have been waiting for my foxgloves friends for too long.
I put in 12 more plugs this year, as I am afraid those that bloomed this year may not come back.
I think I will let half go to seed, maybe I can get some volunteers next year.
