This plant is a friend to bees, butterflies, and hummingbirds.
Featuring trumpet-shaped flowers resembling a finger's shape (digitalis) and the fuzzy tongue of each open bloom (beartongue).
For spring planting, mix the seeds with damp soil and refrigerate them for 30 to 60 days before sowing in the garden. These seeds need light to germinate, so it's crucial to sow them at the soil surface; germination should typically occur within 15 to 20 days.
Water the seedlings until they are well-established; mature plants appreciate occasional watering. Be cautious not to overwater, as this plant is particularly sensitive to root rot if the soil becomes too wet.
