Penstemon-Margarita BOP, Penstemon heterophyllus
Long blooming and long lived! Plump yellow buds open to sky-blue flowers that mature to iridescent hues of blue, violet and purple, highlighting the deep-green, fine, linear foliage. Extremely drought tolerant once established, BOP stands for âBottom of the Porchâ where it was discovered at Las Pilitas Nursery in Santa Margarita, CA. A versatile perennial that tolerates a wide range of garden conditions. A cinch to grow â no pampering needed. Best in loose, gravelly soil with good drainage. Pinching back taller varieties when about 12″ tall will produce more compact plants. Can be divided every 3-4 years in spring by digging mature rhizomes and replanting. Will self sow. Foliage can be trimmed after blooming to freshen. Clean up in fall or spring.
