Penstemon lyallii

I was given this as a 'freebie' with a recent seed order.
Of no interest to me - but if you would like it, let me know, otherwise it's heading to Acres of Keillour.

I'm sure you'll find a home for this herbaceous species........ just a pity that herbaceous perennials run a severe risk here of being dug up when "someone" is planting bulbs !  :o ::)

Hi I'm new to this forum. 
I'm not sure what is the protocol to get the seeds but I'm interested. I looked up this plant on google and I realized, it naturally grows in my area yet I have never seen it! I'm a bit of a perenial plant collector, hence known as pmm (perenial mission man) I enjoy growing  here in my zone 3 wind swep Calgary 1/2 acre lot  plants from seeds (including trees) from around the world and all the way from zone 9. 
What do I have to do to get the seeds?

Hello, and welcome to the forum.
The best thing to do, is to click on my name, and then use the 'personal message' system to send me your address.
I'll then get the seeds off to you.
Any chance of posting some photographs of some of the plants you grow? (Maggi can help, if you can't work out how to do it).
