Canary Digiplexis
Canary Digiplexis (Digiplexis 'Canary')
Canary Digiplexis (Digiplexis 'Canary') is a vibrant, long-blooming hybrid foxglove known for its tall spires of golden-yellow flowers and lush, green foliage. This stunning perennial combines the exotic beauty of digitalis and isoplexis, resulting in a vigorous, repeat-blooming variety that thrives in warm climates. Its striking color and strong upright habit make it an exceptional choice for garden beds, borders, and pollinator-friendly plantings.
Distinctive Features
Canary Digiplexis is prized for its golden-yellow, tubular flowers arranged in dense, vertical spikes. The blooms have a soft peachy undertone, with speckled throats that add depth and texture. Unlike traditional foxgloves, this hybrid boasts an extended bloom period, flowering continuously from late spring until the first frost. Its semi-evergreen foliage and sturdy stems make it a standout in both garden landscapes and cut flower arrangements.
