The Excelsior group of foxgloves is a particularly fine strain, producing flower spikes with large trumpets in clear colours, in a range of lovely pastel shades, that look spectacular at the back of a border and are exceptionally attractive to bees. If your soil is dry and free-draining, try to incorporate plenty of organic matter into the soil before planting. RHS AGM winner
