It’s funny how irritable those relic Parry penstemons from an old roadside hydro seed make me. For goodness sake, why weren’t more regional seeds used in that revegetation job? Short diatribe over.
Penstemon species are fun to grow in your personal habitat and seed or plants are readily available. One way or the other you’ll get penstemon volunteers as well. Yay!
If you are a beardtongue geek, I recommend Robert Nord’s book called Penstemons. I still pull it off the shelf so I guess that makes me a geek.
The photos are mine of Penstemon fendleri, P. superbus and P. pseudospectablis.
