penstemon (beardtongue)

20 years ago

Wondering what kind of luck other people are having with this plant. I've only had cana so far and two out of three of them didn't make it through the winter. In general, I've had very good luck with anything that's supposed to be drought tolerant. But maybe it's not dry enough here. ???

I'd like to try one I saw in High Country Gardens' catalog but don't want to throw away my money if it's something that insists on dry sandy conditions.

I think the gray leaves and hot pink flowers on the one below would be pretty. If you click where it says "view growing tips", it says "Elevations Above 7000 ft. & Western Only". Is elevation important?

Here is a link that might be useful: beardtongue
