Foxy Foxglove is a biennial. The plant itself usually lives for two years but will reseed itself where happy and if flowers are not deadheaded. In Georgia and similar climates I've found that foxgloves prefer a loamy, well-drained but moist soil. This usually means adding a good amount of compost and other organic matter to our clay-based soil. I've also found that plants perform better with filtered sun in the afternoon.

Foxglove can be deadeheaded after they've flowered but this will prohibit reseeding.

I feed foxglove with a dose of mild, organic plant food in late-winter / early-spring.

Constantly wet soil can cause disease. Well-prepared beds that provide good drainage but also retain some moisture are best.
