Foxgloves And Fairies

by Hob Hill April 22, 2021

The Courier

13th September, 1923

When foxglove plants appear in a garden they should be encouraged, for the foxglove plant is the plant of the “little people.” Whoever tends and cares for the foxglove will win their friendship. But, on no account should a foxglove be planted, to grow in your garden you must raise it from seed, to be fortunate.

  • These plants are highly poisonous and not recommended for gardens with young children!
