Penstemon 'Firecracker', also known as Eaton's Penstemon, is a vibrant and easy-to-grow perennial that adds a fiery burst of color to any garden. Reaching a height of 2-3 feet, this striking plant boasts tall, elegant spires of crimson-red blooms that attract hummingbirds, butterflies, and other pollinators. Its long blooming season, from late spring to early fall, makes it a valuable addition to borders, meadows, and wildflower gardens.

GROWING INSTRUCTIONS:
Direct sow in late fall, pressing into the surface of the soil since this seed needs light to germinate. For spring planting, mix the Eaton's Penstemon seeds with moist sand and store in the refrigerator for 30-60 days before planting. Keep the soil lightly moist until germination. This seed can also be started indoors 6-8 weeks before planting in the spring.
