Wasatch Penstemon

Wasatch Penstemon (Penstemon cyananthus) is a striking perennial native to the Rocky Mountains, prized for its vibrant clusters of deep blue to purple tubular flowers. Highly drought-tolerant and a magnet for pollinators like bees and hummingbirds, this hardy variety is more commonly found alongside sagebrush than in traditional mountain meadows. It tolerates some shade and adapts well to a range of soil types, making it a versatile choice for diverse landscapes. Wasatch Penstemon pairs beautifully with Sundancer daisy and Utah sweetvetch, making it an essential addition to prairie and meadow settings or water-wise gardens.
