This southwestUS native thrives in the harshest conditions and is a true showstopper when in bloom. The pale pink flowers have a sweet-honey scent and are a favorite among bumblebees. Its attractive sage green leaves skirt the upright stems. This is one of the largest and most dramatic penstemons, it is fairly easy to grow, loves hot & dry and good drainage, though it's said to tolerate clay quite well. Hardy. 80cm
