An unusual penstemon with oval, sharply serrated and pointed leaves and bright pink- lavender flowers. Richardson’s penstemon grows from a shrubby base and is found in dry rocky places and cliff crevices in the Southern Okanagan Valley. Native from British Columbia south through Washington and northeast Oregon, generally east of the Cascades. This beautiful perennial is pollinated by hummingbirds, bees, flies and wasps and is drought tolerant. Overwatering and too much fertilizer can be detrimental to many Penstemon species.
