Default Penstemons in north Jersey

"Doug" wrote in message
oups.com...
Is anyone growing Rocky Mountain Penstemons in New Jersey? I bought
some seeds from Park Seed but after I received them I read that they
don't do well in the northeast; that they're better for the arid West
regions. Park says they should grow okay here. I'm wondering if I
should exchange them or give it the old college try.

Thanks.
Doug


Whattya got to lose by trying? $3.00 ? Do your best to duplicate the
conditions they apparently like. For example, if they like dry-ish soil,
don't mulch them.
