Penstemon jamesii ssp. ophianthus

 
Family plantaginaceae
Life cycle perennial
Flowers violet to lavender

Large-flowered species from the southwestern United States. The flowers crowd around an upright stem. Leaf shape and color are variable.

We left this plant behind in our Pennsylvania garden (and wish it well); we don't grow it in Houston.
