Electric Blue Penstemon

Not ultra crazy about this one, the colors nice, but it's marginally hardy and often dies back to the ground if it does survive the winter. Also seems to really need extra water prior to being established, but once it is, does so-so here. Performs much be

Penstemon heterophyllus

Mine were purple NOT blue. While they are still a pretty color, I purchased because I needed blue in my garden.

Picture/name not accurate

Only 1 of three survived. Very small at bloom time. Great blue color. Otherwise a bust.
Would not buy again. Short bloom period. 
I wanted 3 because I knew they were a shorter plant. It looks odd where it's at because of the small size.

just ok

This penstemon has such a unique blue color! It is one of my favorites in my garden. I planted it last spring and it bloomed the tiniest little bit last year. This spring it grew so much bigger than I expected it to! Super happy with it! It blooms late Ma

Favorite!

Eye catching bright blue tubular flowers. Bees love, & I presumen hummingbirds, as well, but the hummers haven't found our garden yet.

I would buy this product again & again!

This plant arrived healthy.  I am anxious to see it bloom.

This plant arrived healthy and I am anxious to see it bloom.

Small but healthy

Could not be happier with these! I am a totally brown-thumbed novice, and these grew and bloomed without a hitch. Now I have the most beautiful purple-blue flowers in my garden. The honeybees seem to love them as much as I do.

Fantasic

I mix this product as a pop color within a large planting area.

Love, love, love this product. I would definately buy again.

This is my favorite plant of all time. It's absolutely gorgeous and truly "electric blue." I wish it grew a little faster but I can't wait for it to bloom and has done well since I planted it 2 years ago.

The star of my garden

It was a feeble plant but is slowly gaining strength.

Can't wait for it to come back in stock so I can get more

This does not grow straight up as the pictures show. The plant I received was very small so it might just need to get larger and stronger. We will see.

Not sure I would buy again

This is an amazing cultivar!  I found it to be hardy but it may need some coddling at first.  The color is just WOW!

Fabulous plant for New Mexico!

I wanted a this bright blue plant when I first saw it. Bonus that it's xeric and deer resistant. Except... Our neighborhood deer herd decided to try it. Pulled it out of the ground and spit it out a few feet away! So sad. I got it back in the ground early

Nice addition to front flower garden

Gorgeous

I'd use it in a flower bed or as a border.

Fabulously blue!

This plant is a reliable, long-blooming performer that is easy to grow and trouble-free. You can't go wrong with it.

Reliable Performer

I planted this in the late spring of 2019. It sent up just one, small bloom stalk with a couple of strikingly blue blooms. In the winter it did not remain evergreen, I'm in the Mt. foothills (zone 6) and after a few fall snows I was sure it was dead. I le

Worth the wait!

I received this healthy little plant in the mid spring 2019. He sent up one sad little bloom stalk that had maybe 5 flowers. Over the winter, he turned brown and all his leafs dropped off. I figured he was dead. But to my surprise he came out this spring
