| 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! Find & share great deals on gardening items on the NGA Garden Deals Forum! Come chat in the Southeast Gardening Forum! Though all things foul would wear the brows of grace, Yet grace must still look so. |
