Large Flowered Beardtongue (Penstemon grandiflorus) 3-pack of pots
Can’t be shipped.
Large Flowered Beardtongue is a magnificent sight when planted in a large drift. The stems are filled with large pink flower heads that attract bees and other pollinators in early summer. The leaves are smooth and silvery. It is often short-lived but spreads enough by seed to persist in gardens.
