The charismatic, pink flower spikes of the Foxglove are famous as both a reminder of the hazy days of summer and of its deadly poisonous nature. Ingestion of any parts of the plant can result in nausea, headaches and diarrhoea, or even heart and kidney problems. The high flower stems are only produced in the plant's second year, and can be seen between June and September. Foxgloves can be found in woodlands and gardens, and on moorlands, coastal cliffs, roadside verges and waste ground.
Like many of our native plants, they are an excellent source of nectar for bumblebees, moths and Honeybees.
