Usually seen in fiery shades of red, orange and yellow or soft shades of pink and violet, Penstemon Prairie Dusk (Penstemon Prairie Dusk) is a breath of fresh air with its vivid purple flowers.

The flower are bright purple trumpets that stand out in the garden and especially if planted with gold or pink flowers as companions. (Try planting it with Coronation Gold Yarrow or Elfin Pink Penstemon and count the compliments that roll in.)

Penstemon flowers are splendid in perennial borders and also make great cut flowers.
