Bring the charm of a cottage garden to your home with this Penstemon Mix. This collection includes three established, garden-ready Penstemon plants in 9cm pots, ready to plant directly into your beds, borders, or containers. You'll receive one each of Penstemon Pensham Plum Jerkum, Penstemon Hartwegii Strawberry and Cream, and Penstemon Pensham Czar, offering a delightful mix of colors and textures. These plants produce beautiful bell-shaped flowers on short, upright spikes throughout summer and autumn, creating a long-lasting display of color.
Penstemons are incredibly versatile and easy to grow, making them perfect for both beginner and experienced gardeners. They thrive in well-drained soil and prefer a sunny location. Plant them alongside other perennials or ornamental grasses to create a dynamic and visually appealing garden display. The flowers are also excellent for cutting, allowing you to bring the beauty of your garden indoors. These hardy perennials will form large clumps over time, rewarding you with an even more impressive floral display each year.
To keep your Penstemons looking their best, occasionally deadhead fading blooms to encourage further flowering. In late autumn, protect the roots from frost by applying a dry mulch of compost around the base of the plants. With minimal care, you can enjoy a stunning display of Penstemon flowers year after year. This mix offers a fantastic range of colors and forms, ensuring that your garden is filled with beauty and interest.
