Are these penstemon seedlings or willowherb. They are growing at the base of a dead fushia that needs to come out so thought I'd check first.

I think weed. I have never had penstemon self seed in the garden.

Thought so Fidget. I know cuttings are the way to go with penstemon but these are close to one so thought I had struck it lucky. Thank you.
