Penstemon digitalis 'Husker Red' is a cultivar noted for its burgundy foliage and stems, which are a perfect backdrop to offset its white flowers. The plants are more compact than other species, which reduces the tendency of the flowering stems to flop. Penstemon digitalis 'Husker Red' is particularly unattractive to deer, and very attractive to a wide range of pollinators including long-tongued bees as well as halictid bees, moths, butterflies, and hummingbirds.
