hi all..

I've just been told that the Nectar from foxglove can be harvested and consumed.. I alway thought the entire plant was poisinous.. am I wrong ?? doesn't it have the effect of slowing the heart?

any info on this please :)

Well, it can certainly be harvested by bees... Doing it any other way would seem horribly inefficient and time-consuming.
