Since you asked, the Penstemon in the pot behind the birds is a very old
specimen of P. davidsonii. In the smaller container you can see Aquilegia
jonseii, Lewisia redivida, Draba densifolia. The tanagers come in the early
spring to feast on the strawberries that I use for ground cover.

Hello all,

Jim, I wonder what the penstemon is behind the tanagers? I wish we had
tanagers west of the Cascades! Kyle, I'm afraid that Jim would not have
bobwhite quail in Idaho unless they have been introduced (planted).
