"Penstemon digitalis (Foxglove Beardtongue) matures to 3' in height and has white to pink flowers. It prefers medium to dry medium soils but can adapt to many light conditions: full sun to part shade such as clearings within forests, woods' edges, and savannas.
 
"The tubular flowers of this plant attract long-tongued bees, including honeybees, bumblebees, Miner bees, Mason bees, and hummingbirds. Penstemons are called 'Beard Tongues' because the sterile stamen has a tuft of small hairs." (Description via PrairieMoon.com, our seed source.) Grows to 3 feet high, and blooms in June/July. One of the toughest and most elegant plants in our prairie at CGS! Will reseed if allowed to mature. 
 
Each year, we grow native tall-grass prairie plants to help you build your Ohio pollinator habitat. Our plants are healthy and vigorous, and you won't find a better price for this combination! And each year that you shop the CGS plant sale, your own garden grows in biodiversity and beauty.
