I am hesistant about pruning my foxglove and coreopsis because of such succesful growth this year. Perennial planting has become a bit of an obsession (bordering on proffesional intervention). Thanks for any info

Doug says he doesn't understand. You only have to prune foxglove when it has finished blooming (deadhead the spent blossoms) and Coreopsis the same - only deadhead.

There is no other pruning needed with these plants.

If you're asking if you should thin out seedlings, then that's a judgement call and that's what gardeners get paid the big bucks to do. :-) Leave about 12-18 inches between plants and let them grow into that space.
