One of my favorite native flowers. I did'nt have any in my yard so I transplanted a bunch 2 years ago. They have now multiplied and I see about 50 of them growing. Fox Gloves are VERY toxic and should not be eaten and kept away from children. There is a heart drug a derived from this plant called Digitalis. Here is more information on the plant: http://www.ansci.cornell.edu/plants/digitalis.html
