Penstemon ‘Flock of Flamingos’
A flock of flamingos is called a flamboyance — and honestly, that tracks.
‘Flock of Flamingos’ brings tall wands of large, shrimp-pink blooms that gradually soften to baby pink as they age. So you get that two-tone effect happening all at once — fresh color at the top, softer shades below. It’s dynamic without being chaotic. We appreciate a plant with range.
This is a substantial, clump-forming Penstemon that sends up masses of flowers on strong 36" stems from midsummer straight into fall. And the bloom count? Generous. Like, “did you plant three?” generous.
Bumble bees are obsessed. If you’re building a pollinator-friendly garden, this one earns its keep quickly.
