Penstemon ‘Blackbird’ at Digging Dog
Beard Tongue
Among the most exuberantly blooming plants this side of the Mississippi, Penstemon is part of the enchantment of the West. A member of the Snapdragon family, even cultivated varieties retain a natural air, with dainty, long trumpet flowers and five (pent) prominent stamens.
Sturdy and easily grown, species vary from 1 to 5 ft. tall, and range in color from white to pink to purple to deep wine redone for every sunny spot. Trim after the first bloom to encourage a repeat flowering, and cut to the crown in winter for bushy growth next season. Penstemon ‘Blackbird’
Elegant and slender, ‘Blackbird’s deep raspberry-colored flowers hang amidst handsome foliage well into the autumn, a stunning accompaniment to the silvery foliage of Lavandula ‘Silver Frost’.
Blooms June–November. Size: 2-1/2' high x 2' wide; hardy to zone 6. Penstemon Blackbird (P-0662) Each $6.00
