Depends if you want them to seed everywhere? If you do then don't and if you don't then do!!!!!

If you do they should also put out side shoots and continue blooming !

.. and if you don't, then don't put the stems with their masses of seed on the compost heap.
I like to have some foxgloves every year but I have to pull out seedlings continually from all the places I don't want them.

I wish I had that problem. Hollyhocks are my nuisance, seeding everywhere and growing 7 ft tall and more.
