Penstemon NOVA® Series
The Penstemon NOVA® Series introduces a vibrant and hardy selection of penstemons designed to enhance gardens with extended bloom periods and striking floral displays. Notably, the ‘Twilight’ variety showcases clusters of violet-blue flowers that bloom from late spring through fall, forming an upright, vase-shaped plant ideal for both garden beds and containers. This perennial reaches approximately 14 inches in height and width, with flower spikes extending up to 28 inches, and thrives in USDA Hardiness Zones 7 to 9. Another standout, Penstemon NOVA® ‘Pearl’, offers a compact form adorned with pure white blooms, providing a luminous contrast in garden settings.
Both varieties are celebrated for their ability to attract pollinators such as bees, butterflies, and hummingbirds, while also being deer-resistant and low-maintenance. Their adaptability to full sun or partial shade, coupled with a preference for well-drained soil, makes them versatile choices for various landscape designs.
