Well, more a heart racing tale. I had the pleasure of chatting to one of the gardeners in Roath conservatory yesterday. There were so many people enjoying the warmer temperatures and whilst it was too early for the rose garden to be flowering it was such a joy to walk through the park with an icecream.
There was a plant sale and though I only had enough money on me for one campanula I admired the Digitalis in a pot. I explained that the expensive digitalis (foxglove) that I had bought for my new bed was stripped by the big chickens when my back was turned. The gardener was surprised that there had been no ill effects to the birds as digitalis is used in heart medicine. It's used to strengthen and regulate the heartbeat.
You can see here how well they did at eating it and it's accompanying plant within ten minutes. I can tell you that my heart beat could have done with regulating when I saw how destructive they had been.
