Penstemon Parryi

Penstemon Parryi  is a wildflower native to the Sonoran Desert of Southern Arizona and northern Mexico . It is a Perennial that blooms in March and April. In the wild, plants flower in their second year. In cultivation, flowering is often achieved in the first year if seed is planted in the autumn. From the base emerge the flower stalks, which are 2 to 3 feet high and topped with numerous deep-throated pink flowers. Attracts Hummingbirds, Butterflies and Bees when in bloom. Once established it is quite drought tolerant. Prefers dry soil over moist as it is a Desert plant.

I urge anyone buying seed to do their homework on germination, I have not raised and cannot raise many of these plants as I am sub-tropics here in St Augustine, Florida. All seed are NOT alike!  There are so many different factors in germination and not doing a search is throwing your money away. I want everyone to be successful when growing your flowers from seed it is the most rewarding experience in Gardening and you can do it, if you give the seed what it needs to grow. I always check 3 sites of info to choose how I will go about it. It is not hard to do, if you do it right!

SEED GERMINATION TIP!!!!!!!

ONLY GERMINATE A SMALL PORTION AT A TIME.

DON'T PUT ALL YOUR MONKEYS IN A BARREL.

Good Luck and Happy Planting!!!!
