Perennial foxglove? I bought these perennial foxgloves on- line but they didn't look like this last year! Some have flowered this year but some have done nothing. Any idea what's going on?

yes it is a foxglove but probably a hybrid between themselves.
the genetics are not that stable so you get some good mixes.
This probably has D ferruginea [rusty foxglove] in its parentage.
