Rydberg Penstemon
Honeybees forage on Rydberg penstemon for nectar and pollen from its tubular flowers, which are particularly attractive to small bees during the summer growing season. Peak bloom occurs in midsummer, providing a reliable food source in full sun and well-drained soils. The plant forms dense clusters and may require division every few years to maintain vigor in moist conditions.
