Penstemon 'Onyx and Pearls'
Penstemon 'Onyx and Pearls' is a striking perennial valued for its dramatic dark green foliage heavily flushed with rich purple-red tones. From early summer until late autumn, elegant spikes of soft pink and white bell-shaped flowers rise above the foliage, creating a beautiful contrast and extending colour through much of the growing season.
This long-flowering variety adds height and interest to mixed borders, cottage garden schemes, and wildlife-friendly plantings. The delicate flowers sway gracefully in the breeze and combine particularly well with ornamental grasses and late-season perennials.
Easy to grow and reliable, 'Onyx and Pearls' thrives in a sunny position with well-drained soil and provides an excellent source of nectar for bees, butterflies, and other beneficial insects.
