Hi,

Any suggestions for bulbs to plant now that will bloom same time as some digitalis purpurea?

I have 4 patches of foxglove babies I started this summer, around 100 plants in total. They are mostly on the edge of a small wooded patch. I have searched for companion bulbs, but I'm just not finding what I am looking for. Maybe I am having keyword blockage! I see pictures of foxglove, peonies and allium all blooming at same time, but not sure of zone. Plus, I was hoping for something to the sides of the foxglove, which would put it in partial shade. Actually, i do not even know when the foxglove will bloom here...I did not see any this spring locally. I sure hope mine survive. I kind of think the spring winds here might do them in, but hope springs eternal. :D

I am in zone 5--Iowa.

If anyone knows of a good website showing bulb bloom times (or relative bloom times) and companion perennials, I'd love to know bout it. :)
