Oh what a shame Meanie....At least you have this one...wouldn't it have been awful if you had lost them all!!...

Sensei - it is a true perennial (that dislikes disturbance), and it does come true from seed.

Motinot - this was the smallest of the plants too!

Lovely Meanie, I've just sown seed for this one that I got from the RHS, can't wait.
Do you grow Ferruginea (rusty foxglove) I have a flower spike forming on one I bought last year, exciting.

Just sown seed for Ferruginea, so hopefully next year............

Loads of D.lanata coming along too.
