¿Sabías?

The tuft of hairs on the anthers may be important in pollination of Foxglove. The hairs rub against the backs of bees and other insect pollinators that visit the plant and cause the anthers to bend in such a way as to deposit pollen on the backs of the insects.

Hojas
The foliage of 'Blackbeard' is dark purple. Before flowering, foxglove beardtongue leaves grow at the ground without a stem (basal rosette). The leaves grow to about 6" long by 2½" wide, oval shaped with smooth leaf margins. Once it begins to develop flowers, the leaves grow opposite one another on the stem, lance-shaped and with small teeth on the margins.

Foxglove beardtongue stems terminate in a loose cluster of pink flowers, which are borne on branches in groups of two. The flowers are tubular, the petals are divided into a lower lip with 3 lobes and an upper lobe with 2 lobes. The flowers have five stamens; four of the stamens are fertile (make pollen) and one is sterile.
