Penstemon Alpinus is a stout beauty that has dense, terminal racemes with large blue flowers that rise atop lanceolate leaves. It has a blooming season that ranges from Spring to early Summer, grows best in full sun in dry, well-drained soil, and will grow up to 12 inches tall. These showy flowers will attract Bees to your garden. It is native to rocky sites in sub alpine regions in Colorado and Wyoming, where it can live at elevations up to 6,000 feet! These do well in beds and borders in the garden and can also be used as a groundcover.

I urge anyone buying seed to do their homework on germination, I have not raised and cannot raise many of these plants as I am sub-tropics here in St Augustine, Florida. All seed are NOT alike!  There are so many different factors in germination and not doing a search is throwing your money away. I want everyone to be successful when growing your flowers from seed it is the most rewarding experience in Gardening and you can do it, if you give the seed what it needs to grow. I always check 3 sites of info to choose how I will go about it. It is not hard to do, if you do it right!
SEED GERMINATION TIP!!!!!!!
ONLY GERMINATE A SMALL PORTION AT A TIME.
DON'T PUT ALL YOUR MONKEYS IN A BARREL.
Good Luck and Happy Planting!!!!
