    Can anyone tell me if this flower at the top of my foxglove is "normal" or some type of mutant.

    Someone asked a question about this type of foxglove a couple of weeks ago and according to Daniel it is a peloric foxglove. If you use search on the site your questions should be answered. It does look pretty weird doesn't it?

    Hello,

    Just a quick note about your foxglove: if you collect seeds only a percentage (not sure what percentage) of seeds will display the characteristics of the mutation, others will look like a normal foxglove.
