Gorgeous Rocky Mountain Penstemon blooms only once a year, typically during the month of May. This pattern is somewhat different from other varieties of penstemon in my garden, which bloom throughout the Spring, Summer, and Autumn.

Beautiful color! These look like snapdragons...are they related? Really pretty! :)

I honestly don't know whether or not penstemons are related to snapdragons, Allison. But I'm guessing they are not. Snapdragons are annuals, while penstemons are perennials.

Thanks, Chuck. Yeah, they are pretty cool, as they grow on these long, tall stalks that are just covered with flowers.

It really is very beautiful. I can see why bees like it, they can get right inside and roll about !!

lol! Well, the Bumble Bees have some difficulty fitting inside, but that doesn't stop them from trying. Thanks for the accolades, Miss Gail . . . much appreciated.

Many thanks, Pamela. Rocky Mountain penstemons are, IMHO, the most beautiful (with respect to color) of all the penstemon varieties.
