Description
Digitalis 'Lucas White' is a beautifully serene foxglove, bringing clean vertical lines and luminous white flowers to borders from early summer into autumn. Its dark-green, wrinkled and toothed leaves form a tidy, textural clump, from which rise elegant stems of tubular pure white blooms. There is something wonderfully fresh about Digitalis 'Lucas White', particularly in planting schemes where softer colours need a little lift. It has the classic foxglove presence, tall, graceful and quietly theatrical, but with a crisp simplicity that feels especially refined.
Use Digitalis 'Lucas White' to add light to dappled shade, soften the edge of a woodland border or bring a cool note to a sunny cottage garden. It works beautifully with ferns, hostas, campanulas, roses and blue-flowered perennials, where its white spires act like punctuation marks among the foliage. The long flowering season makes Digitalis 'Lucas White' a particularly useful choice for extending interest beyond the first flush of summer. Plant it in small groups for a natural rhythm, or repeat it through a border for a more polished effect. Elegant, versatile and never showy, Digitalis 'Lucas White' proves that restraint can be rather captivating.

Useful information
-
Soak the Digitalis 'Lucas White' roots in water for 3-6 hours prior to planting
Plant your "Foxglove" bare roots into temporary pots with a multipurpose compost within a week of delivery and grow-on in a sheltered spot outdoors
Choose a pot which comfortably fits the bare roots. Some have a noticeable crown which should be just below the soil surface with any top growth exposed. Some varieties are a length of root which should be planted lengthways and shallowly (1-2cm deep).
Plant out into borders or permanent containers in late spring or early summer once in full growth. Choose a position in sun or shade depending on the variety.
