Camelot Cream Pelleted (F1) Digitalis Seed
Blooms the first year from seed. Conventional seed with conventional pelleting. This seed is not NOP-compliant.
Ivory and cream bells with dark red freckling in the throat: a dramatic and elegant color combination. Bells circle the stem. Plants produce 1–2 large, full, center spikes. High-quality side shoots make abundant cut flowers and fill out the plants in garden beds. Great for bouquets and gardens. Best when treated as a fall or spring-planted hardy annual, as winter survival is generally poor when treated as a perennial. Pelleted seeds.Specs:
