1. Planting:  Choose a site with partial shade or filtered sunlight, ideal for protecting the delicate blooms from intense afternoon heat. Arctic Fox™ Rose Foxglove prefers rich, acidic soil with excellent drainage, especially through the winter months. Avoid soggy or compacted soils, and amend with compost at planting to boost long-term performance.

2. Watering:  Keep the soil consistently moist but not waterlogged, especially during the first growing season as the plant establishes roots. During dry spells, a weekly deep watering is ideal. Mulching around the base helps retain soil moisture and regulates temperature for healthier root development..

3. Fertilizing:  Feed in early spring with a balanced, slow-release fertilizer or a compost-rich top dressing to promote strong growth and flowering. Avoid overfeeding, as excessive nitrogen can lead to floppy stems with fewer blooms. A second light application in midsummer can support extended blooming.

4. Pruning:  To encourage continual flowering, remove spent flower spikes by cutting them down to the base. This signals the plant to produce smaller side blooms for a longer display. Every 3–5 years, divide clumps in spring or fall to rejuvenate and expand your planting.
