Three new perennials at Finke Gardens, Pica Bella Coneflower, Sweet Joanne Penstemon and Maestro Sedum, have many shared characteristics:  compact, tidy form, strong growth in hot, dry locations and a long season of color. This pink palette of flowers grow well and look good together so consider adding this trio to your garden

The flowers of Pica Bella Coneflower have thinner petals than the typical coneflower, along with a long season of bloom.

Sweet Joanne Penstemon
, developed by Dale Lindgren in North Platte, has larger flowers than most penstemon and will bloom till frost if cut back through the summer.

Maestro Sedum has blue green foliage on purple stems and showed the strongest form in a comparative planting of tall sedum.
