Digitalis lanata is a biennial or short-lived perennial that grows to 3 feet tall. This plant is also known as Grecian Foxglove, Wooly Thimble, and White Thimble. This native of Southeastern Europe gets its name because its buds are covered with a wonderful thick fuzz.This very rare and beautiful foxglove produces long racemes of orchidlike flowers that are white with bronze, yellow or purplish tinted marks on a dark green foiage. It can be perennial or biennial, but usually needs a second year for flowering to occur in early Summer.
