Thompson & Morgan

From the 'Ice Cream Collection', Penstemon 'Strawberries and Cream' presents a captivating display with its cream and speckled red blooms. This robust and beautiful variety delivers a profusion of luxurious, bell-shaped flowers from summer through to early winter, proving resilient in diverse weather conditions. Penstemons are celebrated for attracting pollinating insects, thanks to their nectar-rich flowers. As a low-maintenance, hardy perennial, it provides reliable and stunning results year after year.For optimal growth, pot up penstemon plants and nurture them in frost-free environments until well-established. Encourage bushier growth by pinching out the growing tips while the plants are still young. Prior to planting outdoors in borders or patio containers, acclimatise well-developed plants to outdoor conditions over a period of 7 to 10 days. Penstemons thrive in a sunny or semi-shaded location with fertile, well-drained soil. Once established, they can tolerate drier soils, but they dislike heavy soils that remain cold and wet during winter. Improve heavy soils by incorporating plenty of coarse grit before planting.Product Specifications:.Position: Full sun.Height: Reaching up to 80cm (31.5 inches) when fully grown.Spread: Extending up to 80cm (31.5 inches) when fully grown.Supplied as 1x Penstemon Strawberries and Cream Jumbo Plug Plant.Please note: Images are for illustrative purposes only and represent the expected results upon maturity.
