Dalmatian White Foxglove Care
Dalmatian White Foxglove can be grown in full sun to partial shade. Grow this low-maintenance plant in moist, well-drained soil with a slightly acidic to neutral pH. Water Dalmation White Foxglove whenever the soil is dry. It benefits from an annual application of a balanced, slow-release fertilizer in spring.
Dalmatian White Foxglove should be deadheaded after flowering to extend the blooming season and to control self-seeding. If self-seeding is desired, leave a few spent flower spikes on the plant. Mulching the plant will help protect it through winter while conserving soil moisture. If growing Dalmatian White Foxglove in containers, move the pot to a sheltered, unheated location in winter.
Dalmatian White Foxglove Spacing
Dalmatian White Foxglove readily self-seeds and looks great when planted in clusters. Space this perennial 12-14 inches apart, planting closer together for mass plantings.

Plant Shipping
Below are some factors we consider when determining when to ship the plants depending on the timing of the order.
Winter to Early Spring
We ship only when it's warm enough to plant in your growing zone.
Sometimes plants aren't completely ready to sell and ship in early spring. We will wait until the plants are ready before shipping so you don't get a subpar product.
For Southern plants we will be able to ship much earlier than plants coming from our northern nursery.
Summer
If there is extreme heat we may delay shipping for a week or several weeks.
We review what areas the plants are traveling through as well as your location.
Fall into Winter
We’ll ship plants out all the way up to the end of the fall planting season!
Winter
Get your order in early to reserve your plants for Spring planting!
Once your plant is shipped you’ll receive an automated email with tracking information.
