Question
Foxglove
Re: my previous question of foxglove with flat topbloom I have enclosed a photo of said bloom
Answer
Unfortunately it looks like the photo did not upload properly. I have done some research and can't find anything sounding similar to what you describe is going on with your Foxglove. My best guess would be that there is some pathogen in the soil causing multiple plants to exhibit the same odd characteristics.
