Now. But there are a small group of seeds that require a special treatment before they will even germinate in a climate that has temperatures below freezing. This process is called “Cold Stratification.” There are two ways to accomplish this. There are many ways to cold stratify. You can use our instructions or google for other instructions.Fall PlantingIf time is not a problem, you can put them in the ground in fall and let them go through a winter. They will sprout next year, but not flower. The following year, having gone through two winters, they will return and bloom as expected.If you are planting poppies direct sowing is recommended in late fall or early spring for zones 2-8Create a “False Winter”The second way to do this, if you want to save time, is to create a “false winter.” What this does is trick the seeds into thinking they have been in the ground for an entire year. All they need is to be in your refrigerator for at least 2 ½ months.About 3 months before spring, place seeds in a plastic bag with a handful of slightly dampened, clean peat, paper towel, or a mix of clean peat and sand.Seal and label the bag with seed name and date, then store in the refrigerator (not freezer) for at least 2½ mos. before planting in spring. (The cold period mimics a full winter’s cold.) Once your seed has been treated, it’s ready to plant when spring arrives.One important thing to know is that germination is poor for the seeds. Again, this is an adaptation to its poor growing environment. In the wild, only a few seeds will germinate each year. The rest will be dried and waiting in the soil. This ensures that if a crop of seeds germinates into plants that don’t survive the growing season for some reason like too much rain, too hot, or too cold, that there will be a stock of seed in the ground that can germinate the following year and renew the plant population. So when planting the seed, always plant more than you will need. Not all of the seeds will germinate.ABOUT PENSTEMONA perennial sometimes called Beardtongue, Penstemon plants will reward you with brilliant non-stop blooms with deep bronze-green foliage. These flowers attract hummingbirds and butterflies into the garden with beautiful tubular purple flowers.WHEN TO PLANT PENSTEMON SEEDSCold StratifyingMany penstemon seeds require a long cool, moist stratification time before they will germinate. Cold stratification consists of growing the seed in a moist medium at temperatures just above freezing. This is especially true for northern species.Sow seeds indoors in starter trays or small pots in late winter. (Or direct sow after first frost in fall).After the danger of frost has passed, harden off the seedlings and transplant them into your garden.WHERE TO PLANT PENSTEMON SEEDSPenstemon thrives in full sun or partial shade in fertile, dry to medium moisture, well-drained soils. These plants are drought tolerant once established and are perfect for beds, borders, rock gardens, and cut flowers!HOW TO PLANT PENSTEMON SEEDSPress flower seeds into soil, but do not cover. The seeds need light to germinate. Keep seeds moist until germination, or 14-30 days.HOW TO CARE FOR PENSTEMONPenstemons need very little water and barely any fertilizer. Fertilize when planting only. Deadhead after flowering to maintain vigor and cut back to the base in early spring.WE SHIP FAST & FREE!

Penstemon EATON’S Red Hummingbird Perennial Beardtongue USA Non-GMO 100 Seeds!
EATON’S Penstemon RED Hummingbird Plant Perennial Native Tubular Flowers Non-GMO 100 Seeds!100% Pure Seed – Non-GMO – Fresh PRODUCT INFORMATION Bearded Tongue / Firecracker Penstemon Native Crimson-red flowers in the summer Drought tolerant, once established Deer tend to avoid Tubular, crimson-red blooms are a beacon to hummingbirds and butterflies. Red Penstemon flowers in profusion from June to September, and narrow, glossy dark green foliage provides a dramatic backdrop for the blooms. An easy-care, low-maintenance, native perennial, Red Penstemon grows 16-18 in. tall and is suitable for rock gardens, borders and open woodland areas. It’s drought tolerant, once established, and deer tend to avoid. For best results, plant in full sun to partial shade. Zones 5-9 This easy-to-grow perennial makes a unique, vibrant statement in the garden and is lovely when cut for bouquets. Also known as Firecracker Penstemon, this perennial blazes with intense crimson color. This western native thrives in desert areas, so it is very resistant to heat and drought, making it an ideal choice for xeriscaping. John Mitchell, an 18th century American botanist, recorded the first botanical description of this plant genus; Carl Linnaeus included it in his landmark publication Species Plantarum in 1753. According to legend, Native Americans once used this plant as a versatile medicinal remedy. Its unusual common name comes from a fuzzy “tongue” in each open bloom, which gives a slight resemblance to a mouth and a tongue. The genus name “Penstemon” comes from Greek words for “five threads,” referring to the stamens of each blossom. FAST FACTSCommon Names: Firecracker Penstemon Latin Name: Penstemon eatoniiSpecies Origin: US Native WildflowerType: Native WildflowersLife Cycle: PerennialUSDA Zones: 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 10, 11US Regions: California, Mountain, Arid/DesertStratification: Cold/Wet for 8 WeeksGermination Ease: Stratify 8 WeeksSunlight: Full SunHeight: 24 InchesColor: RedBloom Season: Blooms Late Spring, Blooms Early SummerUses: Attracts Pollinators, Hummingbirds, Cut Flowers, Deer Resistant PLANTING INSTRUCTIONSSowing: 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.Growing: Water seedlings until they become established. This plant develops rather slowly, and usually begins blooming in its second year. Mature plants tolerate drought well, though they also appreciate occasional watering in especially dry weather; excessive heat and dryness can cause wilting. This plant grows well in rocky soil, and has excellent resistance to disease and pests. After blooming cut the plant back to several inches above the soil, unless seed is wanted. Do not overwater, since this plant is particularly susceptible to root rot if the soil becomes too moist. If seeds are not required, cut the plant back after blooming has finished. This plant often self-sows, and is highly attractive to bees, hummingbirds, and butterflies.Harvesting: For cut flowers, choose stems with flowers that have just opened. Strip the foliage that will fall below the water level, and place in water immediately.WE SHIP FAST & FREE! Your orders ship the next business date after payment via US mail. NO TRACKING.
