    Somewhere outside that's sheltered and not too sunny for the first week or so to allow them to settle in. Then a sunnier spot would be fine.

      I take seed every year from my Foxgloves.
      They take their chance ,I pricked them out a couple of weeks ago .
      I will keep them outside most of the time ,I may even plant them out before winter ,I have some plastic domes to cover them.

        Mine didn't flower this year.

        Last autumn I grew some foxgloves from seed in trays in the greenhouse, as I always do. They remained small plants over winter, then this spring I pricked them out and planted in individual plant pots and they grew well in size and I later planted them out in my borders and in into some large patio plant pots, however non of them flowered
