Penstemon jamesii
Also called James' Penstemon, James’ Beardtongue
Penstemon jamesii, the James penstemon, is as species of flowering plant in the Veronica family from the southwestern United States and northern Mexico.
James penstemon is native to Colorado, Kansas, New Mexico, and Texas in the United States and Coahuila and Nuevo León in Mexico. However, the northern edge of its range is Las Animas and Baca counties in Colorado and Morton County, Kansas; the species grows nowhere else in either state. It grows in many parts of New Mexico, particularly on the eastern plains of the state. In Texas it is found in the most western part of the state. It grows at elevations of 1,100 to 2,300 meters (3,600 to 7,500 ft).
