Stunning!
I was curious as to the origin of the name foxglove, this is what I found...
The earliest known name for this plant is the Anglo-Saxon “foxes glofa” (the glove of the fox). It derives its name from the flowers which resemble the fingers of a glove and possibly from a northern legend that bad fairies gave the blossoms to the fox to put on his toes, so that he might soften his tread while he hunted for prey.

Those are beautiful flowers. Do you know the name of them?
