Free click & collect from the nursery, or delivery on larger orders.
Penstemon ‘Garnet’ (also sold as ‘Andenken an Friedrich Hahn’) is among the hardiest and most free-flowering penstemons — a semi-evergreen perennial with narrow green leaves and an upright, bushy habit.
From June it produces a long succession of slender, tubular flowers in a rich garnet-red, held above the foliage and much loved by bees. Deadheading keeps it going through to the first frosts.
Grow it in full sun in any reasonably free-draining soil. Leave the top-growth on over winter for protection and cut back in spring. Excellent in mixed and cottage-style borders.
