I am trying laying the tall verbascum and foxgloves on the ground
where I would like them come up. Of course, if they do, it will be
in the hundreds.

I am trying an experiment of foxgloves. It is not in any propagation book I think. I cut off the stalks that had blooms and have green seed pods and proliferations at the joints where the leaves start coming out. I pulled off the small plants and put them in a community pot to grow on. It has only been
a couple of days, but so far so good. One of the larger off shoots actually has some roots- this is a very good sign that the
plant wants to keep growing and making plants.
