Smooth Penstemon, also known as Foxglove Beardtongue, is a perennial native to the eastern and Midwestern United States. Found in open woods, meadows, and prairies, it typically grows 2–3 feet tall with showy white, tubular, five-lobed flowers that bloom from mid-spring through early summer. It thrives in full sun or partial shade with moderate moisture and is well-suited for home gardens, rain gardens, and prairie or pollinator plantings. The early bloom period makes it a valuable nectar source for hummingbirds, bumblebees, mason bees, and smaller native bees. It also serves as a host plant for the Chalcedon and Edith’s Checkerspot butterflies.
