This clump-forming wildflower brings a natural, meadow-like charm to borders, pollinator gardens, and native plant landscapes, and it returns reliably year after year in well-drained sites.\u003cbr\u003e\nThe nectar-rich flowers are a favorite of bees, butterflies, and hummingbirds, making this an excellent choice for wildlife-friendly plantings. Hairy Beardtongue works well in cottage gardens, rock gardens, and naturalized areas, and its tidy green foliage stays attractive through the season. It can be started from seed indoors or sown directly in prepared beds, and it tolerates dry, rocky, or sandy soils once established.\u003cbr\u003e\nSpecies: Penstemon hirsutus\u003cbr\u003e\nType: Perennial\u003cbr\u003e\nPlant_Habit: Upright clump-forming\u003cbr\u003e\nSun: Full sun to part shade\u003cbr\u003e\nSoil: Well-drained, sandy to loamy\u003cbr\u003e\nZones: 3-8\u003cbr\u003e\nGermination: 14-30 days with cold stratification\u003cbr\u003e\nSowing: Surface sow, light required for germination\u003cbr\u003e\nSpacing: 12-18 inches\u003cbr\u003e\nNotes: Native wildflower; blooms late spring to early summer\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Blake's Flora \u0026 Soil","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":67664819126408,"sku":"ANNISA-659","price":12.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0717\/4648\/6408\/files\/il_fullxfull.7894591480_or5i_93683e62-c617-4c7f-a91d-e1bbfc596889.jpg?v=1791899660","url":"https:\/\/www.natesgardensupply.com\/products\/100-seeds-hairy-beardtongue-penstemon-hirsutus-native-wildflower","provider":"Nate's Garden Supply","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
