Definition
A plant of the genus Penstemon, named for its fuzzy or hairy stamen that resembles a bearded tongue inside the flower.
Etymology
From Middle English 'berd' (beard) and 'tonge' (tongue, from Latin 'lingua'). The name describes the plant's distinctive hairy stamen.
Kelly Says
Penstemon got called 'beardtongue' because someone looked inside the flower and genuinely saw a tongue with a beard—such an honest, whimsical way to name a plant!
