Quick Facts

Description:

24” x 36” wide, (seed propagated). A native beardtongue of the foothills and mountains of the southern Rockies, this plant grows easily over a wide range of the western U.S. The tall showy spikes of intense blue-purple flowers last for over a month in late spring. Spreading steadily via stolons to form large clumps, Penstemon strictus is one of the longest lived, most easily grown of the Penstemons. A real show stopper!

Zones 4-9

Special Notes:

Plant this with Callirhoe, ground cover Veronica and Artemisia. Easiest to grow of all the Penstemon.
