Tell Me More...
Year after year our penstemon collections are our most popular and sought-after perennial. These sumptuous and elegant plants are dependable as well as beautiful - they keep flowering when many summer bloomers have faded for the season; in the right conditions these Penstemons will start flowering in late May and continue until early December. The cut flowers are used in luxury bouquets to create a natural, airy feel to floral arrangements. This collection with a carefully coordinated palette and spires of tubular blooms comprises: Snowstorm height 75cm spread 60cm, Pensham Plum Jerkum height 75cm spread 60cm and Alice Hindley height 1m spread 60cm. All are semi-evergreen, hardy perennials, and prefer to be grown in moist, well-drained soil in any aspect which benefits from sun for at least half of the day.
