Penstemon 'Firebird' is a striking perennial that adds vibrant colour and a touch of drama to your garden. This variety showcases brilliant red tubular flowers, which emerge in late spring and continue to bloom through the summer, creating a stunning visual display. The bold red hue is not only eye-catching but also highly attractive to hummingbirds and other pollinators.
With a mature height of about 24 to 36 inches, 'Firebird' has an upright growth habit that works well in mixed flower beds, borders, or even as a focal point in container gardens. The lush green foliage complements the vivid flowers, adding to its overall aesthetic appeal. This penstemon is known for its resilience, thriving in full sun and tolerating a variety of soil types as long as they have good drainage.
Penstemon 'Firebird' is low-maintenance and drought-tolerant once established, making it a great choice for water-wise gardens or areas with limited irrigation. Regular watering during the initial growth period will help the plant establish strong roots, but it requires less frequent watering once mature.
