Penstemon ‘Blueberry Taffy’

 

Whorls of glossy emerald green foliage are topped with 10 inch spikes of beautifully detailed tubular flowers with lavender-blue flushed pink lips, white throats and red guide lines. New flower spikes continue to grow from the base and from lateral shoots. With a little deadheading ‘Blueberry Taffy’ can provide more than two months of bloom time.
