Penstemon procerus

 
Family plantaginaceae
Life cycle perennial (Z3)
Flowers blue or white
Size 2"
Light sun

Low-growing, mat-forming species. Hasn't established itself in our garden yet. Our seed came from the Nisqually Cream variety, which has creamy white flowers rather than the blue of the plain species.

We're just trying this plant for the first time this year; it hasn't found a permanent place in our gardens yet. (click here for a full list)
