WILD PENSTEMON 

Penstemon spp.  

2 years to flower

INFO:   This entire seed lot was harvested in the mountains east of Florence, Montana. This is a mix of Penstemon wild flowers native to Montana and our  Inter-Mountain West Ecosystems.  This provides safe food for many pollinators including hummingbirds.

PLANTING:   Seeds need a stratification period (cold/wet cycle) for 50-70 days to awaken from their dormancy, mimicking transition from Fall to Spring.  Either direct sow in a permanent bed, or start in trays outdoors and let the snows and rains awaken them.  Transplant when weather settles.  Drought tolerant, yet water helps.
