Foxgloves in a New Zealand Garden

Foxgloves in my garden

 
The foxgloves in my garden are now over, they were mostly of the wild kind
in shades of pinky mauve with darker blotches which seemed to attract the
bumble bees.  I did have one white one though with dark splotches of mauve
and also a pretty apricot one.
 
 
They will seed well for next year and no doubt the white and apricot will be
mauve as well by then.  They are one of my favourite flowers to grow for the bees.
