Penstemom's are known for their long flowering season and are excellent pollinator plants for the garden. Semi evergreen perennials, the many varities vary in bloom colour, foliage and suitability for particular spots in the garden -with alpine and container varities. Plant in small groups of 3 or 5 for impact and enjoy the colours that will brighten your borders throughout the Summer, until the first frosts.
Chris Whitelock, resident plant expert here at Radway Bridge Garden Centre, sings the praises of the diminutive Penstemon Electric Blue and gives some handy tips for caring for these compact beauties.
