Digitalis lanata - Rusty foxglove

Fertilization Digitalis lanata : Annual plants tend to wither during the autumn period, usually we fertilize regularly up until the plants are flush, otherwise watering and fertilizing is interrupted.

continental : We can grow the The Digitalis lanata in a place where it can receive a few hours a day of direct sunlight, but where it is protected from the sun during most of the day.
The Digitalis lanata is a rustic plant, which doesn’t tolerate the winter cold, even when the nocturnal temperatures are very low.

alpine : Locate this plant in a partially shaded place, where it can receive a few hous of direct solar light.
The Digitalis lanata can stand the cold, therefore it can be grown outdoors year round.

mediterranean : We suggest a pretty sheltered location, so that the plant can receive direct solar rays only during the coolest hours of the day.
Grow the The Digitalis lanata in the garden, in full ground; it can stand the cold.

continental : Let’s water every 0-1 weeks with 3-4 glasses of water, or even more often if the weather is hot and dry; we should always try to keep the ground slightly damp.

alpine : Water regularly, every 1-2 weeks, wetting the soil thoroughly by using 2-3 glasses of water and keeping it always a bit moist, although avoiding to soak it too much.

mediterranean : For a balanced development these plants need constant and abundant dampness; during this time of year it is good to water frequently, about 4-5 glasses of water at least every -0-0 weeks.

Treatments Digitalis lanata : During the cold months many pathogens spend the winter in the ground, at the feet of our plants; let’s treat the plants struck by black spot disease or by leaf curl disease with particular attention by applying a wide-range anticryptogamic treatment, to vaporize even on the ground. Let’s gather and destroy the leaves of the sick plants.
