Bring elegant blooms and exceptional pollinator value to your garden with Foxglove Beardtongue, a greenhouse-grown starter live plant prized for its tall spikes of white tubular flowers, glossy green foliage, and outstanding wildlife appeal. Penstemon digitalis, commonly known as Foxglove Beardtongue or Foxglove Penstemon, is a hardy North American native perennial admired for its graceful flower spikes and long blooming season. It is an excellent choice for pollinator gardens, prairie plantings, native landscapes, cottage gardens, borders, rain gardens, and naturalized areas. With proper care, it produces abundant blooms from late spring through early summer.
Foxglove Beardtongue thrives in full sun to partial shade and prefers well-draining soil. Once established, it is heat and drought tolerant while maintaining an attractive upright habit. The nectar-rich white flowers, often lightly flushed with pink or lavender, attract native bees, butterflies, hummingbirds, and other beneficial pollinators. Following flowering, decorative seed capsules provide seasonal interest and food for birds. This low-maintenance native perennial is also an excellent choice for fresh-cut flower arrangements.
