All foxgloves are biennial or classed as short lived perennial. Save some seeds and see if you can get another few true plants from them 😊

Also, cut it back when it's finished flowering and you may be lucky getting it to bloom again next year. I managed that with a few last year then dug it up and gave it to @elsie who had flowers on it this year too 😄
