Pair of vases “Digitales”

The digitalis plant, also known as foxglove, is a perennial plant native to Europe and parts of Asia. It is known for its tall stalks, topped with bell-shaped flowers in various colors, including pink, white, yellow, purple, and red.

The digitalis plant contains the toxin digitalin, which can be lethal in high doses. Nevertheless, it is often grown in gardens as an ornamental plant because of its beautiful blooms. In addition, digitalis is used in medicine, particularly in the treatment of heart failure and some cardiac arrhythmias.
