I just discovered a passel of seedlings around my Digitalis ferruginea, Rusty Foxglove.

Edit: Opps! I got down on the ground today to pot up the seedlings, and although they look like the seedlings of this Digitalis species, they are not. Each had a long root running away from the foxglove to the middle of an adjacent Crocosmia planting. They are a far cry from looking like a Crocosmia, but the plant came from a friend that had had something he planted wildly invade his perennial bed. It must have hitched a ride, and now I have another area in our gardens to patrol regularly to make sure an unwelcome interloper does not gain a foothold. At any rate, I have to retract my offer of Digitalis ferruginea seedlings. Sorry
