David takes us behind the scenes at Overdevest Nurseries and talks about the difference between these two selections of a wonderful, NATIVE Beardtongue; Penstemon 'Dark Towers' and Penstemon Dark Burgundy. Both will be a welcome addition to the back of your border, they are VERY HARDY, Easy to Grow and put on a terrific, long lasting show.
Dark Towers' s a clump-forming perennial that grows to about 3' tall. It has dark wine colored foliage and pale pink, tubular flowers that bloom in summer. This is an easy to grow perennial that is hardy to Zone 3. A perfect background plant for your border!
"Dakota Burgundy' has darker, glossy, purple-black leaves and lavender flowers that bloom in early summer. It is a bit shorter that most other dark leaved Penstemon and comes iwth darker, glossier, foliage. After it blooms it produces dark seed heads that make a great fall cut flower.
