    How to establish your Penstemon Arabesque Pink?

    Position

    Plant in full sun to partial shade. Full sun encourages the heaviest flowering and strongest compact growth.

    Soil

    Prefers well-drained fertile soil. Avoid heavy wet conditions, particularly during winter.

    Watering

    Water regularly while establishing. Once established, Penstemon ‘Arabesque Pink’ tolerates dry periods well but benefits from occasional watering during prolonged hot weather.

    Feeding

    Apply a balanced fertiliser in spring to encourage healthy foliage and continuous flowering.

    Spacing

    Allow approximately 35–45cm between plants for good airflow and a full mature display.

    How to maintain your Penstemon Arabesque Pink once established?

    Deadhead spent flowers regularly to encourage repeat blooming through the season. Lightly trim plants after flowering flushes to maintain shape and promote fresh growth.

    In colder regions, avoid cutting plants back too hard before winter as the top growth can help protect the crown. Remove old growth in early spring once new shoots emerge.
