Part of the ‘Ice cream collection’ – This popular and beautiful cream and speckled red penstemon is truly mesmerising and hard to beat – Not only will they continuously produce luxurious bells of colour all summer to early winter, but they will also cope well in all weather conditions! Be sure to look out for the pollinating insects, as penstemons are known for being rich in nectar! The perfect low-maintenance, hardy perennial for reliable displays and amazing results year after year! Pot up penstemon plants and grow them in frost-free conditions until plants are well grown. Pinch out the growing tips while plants are still small to encourage bushier growth. When plants are well developed, acclimatise them to outdoor conditions over 7 to 10 days before planting them outdoors into borders and patio containers. Grow penstemon in a sunny or semi-shaded position on fertile, well-drained soil. Penstemons can tolerate dry soils once established but dislike heavy soils that are particularly cold and wet in winter. Improve heavy soils by adding plenty of coarse grit prior to planting.
