Digitalis canariensis – Canary Island Foxglove

Just like Don Quixote I am not adverse to the odd shake of my secateurs at any deserving windmill.  This is Digitalis canariensis, which according to The Windmills is the new name for Isoplexis canariensis.   If anyone had had the good grace to consult with me I would have told them that I think isoplexis is a much more fitting name for this glamorous foxglove relative.  Perhaps next time they will ask my opinion and we can avoid a repeat of this whole nasty episode.
