Foxglove (Digitalis purpurea) engages in several symbiotic relationships, primarily through its interactions with pollinators and mycorrhizal fungi. The plant attracts bees and other pollinators with its tubular flowers, facilitating cross-pollination, which enhances its reproductive success. Additionally, foxglove forms associations with mycorrhizal fungi in the soil, which help improve nutrient uptake, particularly phosphorus, in exchange for carbohydrates produced through photosynthesis. These relationships contribute to the overall health and growth of the foxglove.
