Now a question from a novice. I managed to save several cups of Foxglove
seeds and I "forgot" to plant them prior to the ground freezing and our
having
12 inches of snow. What should I do to preserve any viability of these seeds
to carry them over into spring?

The best way to 'preserve viability' of your seeds is the make sure they are
dry and then put then in the fridge. You can plant them out in the spring, and
they will be nice large plants next year when they flower.
For most seeds moister and heat will be the factors that effect viability in a
negative way. So store in a cool dry place out of direct sunlight.
