Mutant foxglove

This year I am very pleased to have a white foxglove appear in my garden. I’ve been watching it grow and today I saw that it has this lovely flower on top of the stem.
I researched it and it is a mutation that occurs occasionally. The flower on top opens first then the normal foxglove flowers open from below and come up to meet it.
You can just see the regular white flowers coming up underneath it.
Nice closeup. I’m looking forward to seeing the full bloom.

Lucky you. Sounds like a special plant. I love the details and color you have captured and even the photo bomber.

You forgot to mention the photobomber to complete a gorgeous scene. The flower looks lovely. Great shot.
