Well, the bed is almost entirely NEW plants that I hope will bloom next
year. They were started from seed this spring. I am guessing that I need to
much ( as you say LIGHTLY" and get the mulch off early in the spring! Right?

Foxglove is a biennial plant and will flower on this years growth.
The plant flowers, throws seed, it germinates and those plantlets stay
over winter in the soil and bloom in spring. The plant which bloomed
this year will be dead. With that in mind, check around for any
germinated seeds on the soil and after the soil freezes, put down some
mulch, but lighty.

I have a nice bed of about 2 dozen foxglove. Should I plan to mulch them
after it freezes or leave them exposed?
