Thank you ashley !

[Lesley Cox]

Years ago I had a form of D. purpurea called 'Heywood' or 'Heywoodii.' It was a very delicate combo of soft lemon and palest pink and very pretty. Not long lived, and unfortunately the seedlings lent very much towards straight purpurea.

It's probably Digitalis purpurea 'heywoodii' Lesley Cox ?

Very beautiful plant was digitalis !

You know that i have make an watercolor of a botanical drawing (Planche Botanique in French)

It's an artist in Belgium who have produce this copy for me and this is in my House in Ardennes.

I collected last week D. parviflora in Asturias. And also I could collect D. thapsi in my village.

[Lotte Hansen]

Would you be interested in D. 'Red Skin'?I have collected some seeds this year.I am also very fond of the Digitalis family.

Kind regards  Lotte

[Rafa]

Thank you Lotte, I don't grow cultivars and artificial hybrids, I am only interested in pure species collected in the wild. But don't worry, if you haven't anything to exchange It is a gift.

All the best,
rafa

Hi everybody

A little confusion    , but i thank's all of you for you proposition and participation for my collection.

I am impatient to have new seeding plant in my garden to see in flower 

[Arykana]

I LOVE Digitalis, put have to give up. The summer is so hot, dry and long, they cannot survive

[Botanica]

Hello Arykana 

In Ardennes (France) the winter is hard (-22°C this year) but we have good precipitions and not too hot climate (Max 37°C somes days per years) .

My garden was very Green all the time! But not Mediterraneans plants , because difficult to survive .

What's species have you in your garden ?

[Arykana]

I had Digitalis purpurea, the only type I can get here.
We have a winter temperature around  -5-8, but every year has a hard 14-20 days, the temperature goes down to -15-20. Summer time is around 30-38-39, but the last weeks of July and the first 2 weeks in August is mostly over 40 Celsius. More problem, we had no rain all summer long
