Penstemon 'Cha Cha Pink'

Pretty in pink with a lovely detail to the petals.

The sizable, colourful flowers crowd the strong, upright stems from late spring to autumn. They take the heat and their compact nature works well in both containers and gardens.

These are the hardiest Penstemon we have ever met, they are also downy mildew resistant.

The dense foliage has a hint of blue and grows with a nice density. Cha Cha Penstemon work well in gardens or pots and the flowers are even great for picking. What is more, the flowers are loved by bees, butterflies and other beneficial insects.

Happy in poor, to moderately fertile, or humus rich, well drained soils. They won’t tolerate boggy soils though so ensure good drainage. Water to establish then only if rainfall is low, they become dry tolerant once they settle in.

Dead head regularly during the bloom season to promote more blooms. It is a good idea to prune them back to the woody base winter/early spring to promote healthy growth.
