Giant Shirley Foxgloves (igitalis) 
2361 This magnificent strain was raised by the late Rev. 
W. Wilks, to whom we are also indebted for the 
Shirley Poppies, and is unquestionably the greatest 
improvement ever made in Foxgloves. The very 
vigorous plants attain a height of 5 to 7 feet, with 
spikes of bloom 4 feet in length, closely set with 
flowers of unusual size, ranging in color from the 
purest white to dark rose, handsomely spotted and 
blotched with crimson, maroon, and chocolate. This 
is certain to supersede all other strains of Foxgloves. 
Seed sown this spring will produce plants that will 
make a glorious show next season. 15 cts. per 
pkt.; 2 pkts. for 25 ets.
