Digitalis obscura is native to eastern to southern Spain and northern Africa.
It occurs in both the mountains and the lowlands near the coast.
However, it can be grown in many non-native areas as an ornamental plant.
Digitalis obscura naturally grows well in dry climates and in high altitudes.
Unlike many other foxgloves, it is drought-tolerant when it is deeply rooted and established.
It thrives in average, well-drained soil with pH levels of 5.8–7.2.
 It may die if left in wet soil over winter.
Digitalis obscura grows in either full or partial sun.
It blooms during late spring from May to June and spreads over the ground about 0.75–1.5 feet.
Once established, it is perennial and grows at a rather moderate to fast pace.
It is non-invasive and attracts hummingbirds.
It is naturally resistant to deer and rabbits.
