    I wonder if there is some special sp. of Digitalis in Physic Garden. Color is not proper for Digitalis purpurea and there are more branches above blooming

    A cultivar of Digitalis purpurea, selected for white flowers. The branched stem may be either a character of the cultivar, or just response to the growing tip being damaged when it was younger a few weeks ago.
