Nursery contributed plant descriptions

A pretty pink Penstemon to 3' that seeded in our mother block and charmed everyone with its delightful light pink blossoms and clean green foliage. Suzy, our Propagation Supervisor, named it for her lipstick which matched the flower color exactly! The blossoms resemble 'Pennington Gem' in size, and have a white throat streaked with dark pink veins. Garden origin.
