To replenish this plant's nutrients, repot your Butterfingers Foxglove after it doubles in size or once a year—whichever comes first.

Foxglove has aphids (again)… How am I able to stop my foxglove from getting aphids? This is the second time that my foxglove got aphids. I have mint and green onion growing near the foxglove (since I’ve read they’re natural anti pests), and I do try to spray an anti-pest mixture (mostly water with two drops of dish soap and 1/4 teaspoon olive oil) Is it me or the plant??? #PestControl #pestproblems
