Also known as Foxglove Beardtongue, this Penstemon is native to prairies and open woodlands from Maine to Georgia and west to South Dakota and Texas. Philadelphia nurseryman Bernard McMahon included the Smooth Penstemon in his list of "well-adapted" perennials for gardens in The American Gardener's Calendar (1806). In addition to attracting hummingbirds, butterflies, and bumblebees, Penstemon digitalis will naturalize and is tolerant of deer, drought, and clay soils.
