Quartz Rose Beardtongue

Turn up the volume in your garden with ‘Quartz Rose’ Penstemon, a bold, long-blooming perennial that hums with energy from late spring through summer. Its tall, upright stems explode with rose-pink, trumpet-shaped flowers that hum with pollinators—especially hummingbirds. At 20-24 inches tall and spreading 18-24 inches wide, this vibrant beardtongue makes a striking vertical statement in borders, cottage gardens, and pollinator-friendly landscapes. Heat-loving, drought-tolerant, and deer-resistant, this is the easy-care showstopper your summer garden needs.
