Description: PALMER'S PENSTEMON. American heirloom wildflower. Perennial. One of the easiest to grow from the Beardtongue family. Light pink blooms with purple streaks. Continuous blooms all spring. Drought and heat tolerant. Butterflies, Bees and hummingbirds love this plant. This plant is not picky about soil. It will grow just about anywhere with 6 hours of sunlight. Winter hardy. Also, a good-looking plant when not in bloom. 300+ Quality seeds.Some American Native Wildflower seeds need to go through a cold winter to germinate. This plant is one of them. They do this so the seed won’t sprout in fall, only to have the seedling not make it through a cold winter. I have stratified these seeds to simulate a cold winter(stratification) This raises the germination rate considerably. Thanks for looking!!
