This RMP can survive with little to no water. It's easy to grow and is a perfect plant to attract hummingbirds.

Mine are in their third year and each time they bloom I cannot quit looking and photographing them. The colors are breathtaking and they are one of the hardiest plants in my garden. Greatly attractive to small native pollinators.

Loved the Rocky Mountain Penstemon. Couldn't belie it when it bloomed this year. I was expecting this for the following year.

I didn't stratify all of these seeds as suggested on the packed, I planted some of them directly in some pots under lights in December, and they sprouted pretty quickly and grew into small plants that I transplanted this spring. They aren't very big yet, but they are growing bushier and seem to like the garden spots I put them in at my community garden and in our backyard. I also gave a couple of the plants to my sister and father for their low-water gardens. Can't wait to see them bloom (I assume next year, but I'm hoping for this first year, a gardener's gotta dream, right?!) P.S. I did try to stratify some of the seeds, I put them into the refrigerator with a wet paper towel in a plastic container. It stayed damp, but after about a month and a half or so I checked them and it looked like they had sprouted inside the paper towel but had grown and perished (still damp, but probably didn't have air to breath or room to grow!) So, I'm not sure if my refrigerator was not the right temperature as they sprouted quickly, or if I should have been checking them weekly to see if they sprouted? Regardless, the seeds I direct sowed without stratifying germinated perfectly, so I probably will just continue to plant them direct. And, I have plenty of seeds left, thanks for the generous portion!

Planted along the south-facing brick wall of our house. Nothing came up. Perhaps too hot from brick?

There were several seed packets in my order and I was disappointed in all of them. I followed the directions on the packet and had a very poor outcome. I don't think I'll purchase seeds here again. Out of all the ones I purchased I have several johnny jump ups; 1 poppy; a few columbine (have yet to bloom) and that's about it.

I tried two methods. I planted seeds along a fence line last fall and had a nice turnout. The soil location was not too rocky. I hope to use the rest of the seed packet this year for next season in another section where the soil is more rocky. The flowers that grew were tall. I also tried the winter sow method in my garage. I did not have great success with the winter sow; probably had it too wet.

I planted these last fall in a container outside. There are countless seedlings sprouted. I'll transplant into an area when they have their second set of leaves. I know they will thrive. I have Husker Red so I am very anxious to compare it to this blue variety.

I planted the small seedlings in the fall. They survived the winter well. They are now all in bud and I'm looking forward to the flowers.
