Another mystifying plant!

Hi Again,

This is the other one (of many) that I am not sure about, although I am sure one of you knowledgeable people will be able to advise.

Are the red flowers in the background part of the foliage in the foreground?

Cheers,    Tony.
I may be growing OLD, but I refuse to grow UP !

Hi Tony, The flowers are from another plant which is really pretty. But this one I don't even know if it flowers.

Thanks

don't think so, my penstemons are not upright like that, they tend to loll all over the place  ;)

Some Penstemons are quite upright in growth - could be?
I work very hard so don't expect me to think as well.

Could be a type of perennial lobelia
