Description
Penstemon pinifolius ‘Compactum’ Half Pint is a hummingbird and butterfly delight with scarlet-red tubular flowers producing sweet nectar from late spring through summer. It is a little smaller and more compact than the species. Easy to grow in hot, dry, sunny spots. Its needle-like foliage and compact, bushy mounds make for a great fit in the rock or alpine garden, in small spaces, and containers or mass plant to use as a ground cover. Usually evergreen, developing a woody base with time. Pollinator attractor. Deer, rabbit and drought resistant.
