Care Instructions
Penstemons prefer a fertile soil in a warm, sunny or lightly shaded spot. May need winter protection (a dry mulch is best) in colder areas. Removing faded flower stems regularly will prolong the flowering period. They should be cut back in late spring to encourage basal growth. Loved by bees.
