Common foxglove 'Mertonensis'

Try to plant in a location that enjoys dappled sun and remember to water moderately. Keep in mind when planting that Mertonensis is thought of as hardy, so this plant will survive close to or on freezing temperatures.

Try to aim for a seed spacing of at least 5.85 inches (15.0 cm) and sow at a depth of around 0.0 inches (0.0 cm). Soil temperature should be kept higher than 16°C / 61°F to ensure good germination.

By our calculations, you should look at sowing Mertonensis about 70 days before your last frost date.

Ensure that temperatures are mild and all chance of frost has passed before planting out, as Mertonensis is a hardy plant.
