Plant it outside. It can be a poisonous plant to deer, people and other animals. Most animals stay away from it. It comes back every year and spreads like crazy (it drops seeds) no care really it is an easy plant just water it.

Foxglove is the easiest plant to take care of. Very few roots, easy to plant. It is highly poisonous so animals leave it alone. Pretty flower comes back year after year and spreads easily. If it spreads too much easy to pull out and plant because few roots. Likes sun but ok in shade, little water.

Foxgloves need no special care except for staking of the tall flower stems where they are subject to wind or water from rain or sprinklers. Remove stems when done flowering.

Well to take care of this make sure you cultivate the soil often and don't hose the water on. Just spray it.

They need well drained soil that is deep and fairly moist. These are biennial plants that will usually come back the second year, but rarely ever come up the third year. Just make sure you plant a few new seeds each year so you can continue to enjoy your foxglove.
