9-28-10: Penstemon 'Black Bird'

Would you like a deep, dark beauty in your garden this time of year? May we suggest Blackbird penstemon.

Rich, violet-purple tubular flowers cover this hardy perennial and bloom summer through autumn. Many hummingbirds will visit this plant. As well as adding color to your garden, penstemons make great cut flowers for your home. Plant pemstemons in full sun, they are drought tolerant and deer proof once established. If you prune back the spent flowers, penstemons are long bloomers, starting in early summer until frost in fall. The color will attract you and you’ll want to have swaths of them in your garden.
