Yes it is, I got Apple Blossom at the same time. Hope they make it through the winter, as I lost my older ones through last winter. Have to give them a little protection me thinks

Take cuttings - they're easy in water! I'm going to with my new ones. I didn't see 'Apple Blosom;...I'll look out for yours. :-))

Well the flowers are finished now I think, dont know if there will be more this year or not, but I will take some cuttings.

Thanks G - Peony, I just put them in a jam-jar of water and they grow roots. My 'fault' is that I forget to label the pots ! I've tried in compost, but not had much success, but it's 99.9% in water! :-))

Spritz I took a picture today of my Apple Blossom penstemon and put it on site if you would like to see it in my photos.

Beautiful Barbara in winter are they hardy or need protected.

These would look good in our community garden ,I must take cutting of my only bllue penstemon .

First time of me growing and I have it in a pot ,will I need to protect in winter.

They're not always hardy, Kath, and I'd have thought you would need to protect it, especially in a pot. I lost two of my new ones last winter...and that was in lower temps than yours!
