Episode Synopsis

“Lady's glove is the common name for foxglove (Digitalis purpurea), a tall, biennial or short-lived perennial plant known for its spires of tubular, bell-shaped flowers, often purple, pink, or white with speckled throats. It's a popular garden ornamental, but all parts of the plant are poisonous and can cause heart problems if ingested, though it is deer and rabbit resistant and attracts hummingbirds.”
