Penstemon digitalis, commonly called foxglove beardtongue, is a clump-forming perennial which typically grows 3-5' tall and occurs in prairies, fields, wood margins, open woods and along railroad tracks. Features white, two-lipped, tubular flowers borne in panicles atop erect, rigid stems. Flowers bloom mid-spring to early summer and are attractive to hummingbirds, butterflies, and other pollinators. Basal leaves are elliptic and stem leaves are lance-shaped to oblong. 'Husker Red' may not come true from seed.
 
Direct sow in late fall sowing just below soil surface. If planted in spring or started indoors, requires cold stratification.
