Dear friends,
here is the Wikipedia link on Digitalis grandiflora.
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Digitalis_grandiflora
Regards
Yazdy.

[Gurcharan Singh]

Yes Yazdy ji

Thanks for this link. The plant is not D. grandiflora, which in addition to flower colour has clearly linear calyx lobes. Frarida ji's plant has ovate-lanceolate, which as well as leaves and colour variation suggests D. purpurea cv. 'Alba' (syn: D. alba).
