| This one is pretty prolific on my property. It was already here when I moved here almost 32 yrs. ago. Pretty well-behaved. It grows in uncultivated areas and has never popped up in my garden. I was thinking Penstemon but I doubt it.  |

Its a really pretty penstemon  Life is not a journey to the grave with the intention of arriving safely in a pretty and well preserved body, but rather to skid in broadside, thoroughly used up, totally worn out, and proclaiming...."WOW What a Ride!!" -Mark Frost President: Orchid Society of Northern Nevada Webmaster: osnnv.org |

No idea. I'm assuming you can start by eliminating annual penstemon.  Whatever it is, remember that you have had it in your yard for 30+ years so its an old one.Life is not a journey to the grave with the intention of arriving safely in a pretty and well preserved body, but rather to skid in broadside, thoroughly used up, totally worn out, and proclaiming...."WOW What a Ride!!" -Mark Frost President: Orchid Society of Northern Nevada Webmaster: osnnv.org |

| One possibility is the native species called Penstemon calycosus. Very pretty! |
