Growing instructions
Start indoors 10-12 weeks before last frost, sowing the seeds on the surface of the soil as light aids in germination. Mist or bottom water until germination. Harden off and transplant outdoors after the danger of frost has passed. Benefits from starting in a biodegradable pot, as its roots can be sensitive to disturbance during transplant.

About the artist
Carol Bouyoucos embraces the tension she creates in this digital collage by combining digital materiality with historical imagery. In this piece, she used Photoshop, Image Blender and generative A.I. to create a playful narrative that weaves together the folklore and the genetic story of foxgloves.
