A cool day ...

Scientific name: Penstemon spp.
Penstemon means Five stamens. The plant is native to American continents. This is a beautiful tall slender plant with light pinkish flowers. These elegant, semi-evergreen perennials are valued for their spires of tubular foxglove like flowers in white and shadows of pink, red and purple. I got attracted to this flower in Conoor, while attending a workshop. They were planted in a bed, with abundance of flowers calling every ones attention! I took this photograph on 3rd December, 2010.
