<<Hi all! I bought a cute little penstemon today, it was labeled "Penstemon
'Mersea's yellow,' and I've spent an hour on the internet trying to find
out how large it will get, culture conditions, find a photo, etc. I've
found nurseries that list the plant, but no descriptive info. Can anyone
help me?
Thanks!

Dear Nan,
One of the catalogs (High Country Gardens) that lists it says 12' wide by 15"
tall.... Are you gardening in the SW? They like the same as regular pineleaf
penstemon... but a little extra water or use Broadleaf P4. They (HCG) have a
wonderful display garden at the nursery in Santa Fe (New Mexico)! I do not
think that they have a web page yet. They have a toll free # though...

Blessings of the Bursting Season!
