Palmer Penstemon, commonly called Beardtongue, is a resilient heirloom perennial that thrives where conventional garden plants struggle. This desert-native wildflower displays delicate rosy-pink blooms rich in nectar, making it irresistible to hummingbirds, bees, and butterflies. Its exceptional drought tolerance and ability to flourish in poor soil conditions make it an ideal choice for water-wise gardens, xeriscape designs, and challenging landscape situations. The tall-growing habit provides vertical structure and seasonal color throughout summer, with blooms appearing approximately 60 days after planting. Palmer Penstemon's natural rabbit resistance adds practical value for gardeners dealing with wildlife pressure. Preferring bright, sunny locations, this North American native requires minimal maintenance once established, reducing the need for supplemental watering or soil amendments. With a germination rate of 70% or better, these Non-GMO seeds establish readily and reliably. Each packet contains 500 seeds, providing ample quantity for naturalizing in perennial borders or creating pollinator-focused plantings. Our sustainably sourced seeds arrive in eco-friendly, reusable, and recyclable packaging that aligns with environmentally conscious gardening practices.
