Alrighty. Let's play a fun game of Naaaaaame that plant!
This plant was something I couldn't kill at the other house. It was well known for being able to be transplanted without dropping blooms. What the heck is it? I can't remember for the life of me. I do have some pictures, I hope they help... If they are too big, I'm sorry - but photobucket is all weird and I can't find the photos once I upload them. I will have to figure that out.

foxglove.

I think it is a penstemon, beardtongue.

It's definitely not foxglove and I don't think it's penstemon, though it may be...
-
you are right about it not being foxglove. i don't know about penstemon, i haven't seen enough of that to be sure.

Alrighty, I was at the local nursery today and saw this plant from about 100 feet away. My sister was with me and I said, "THAT'S IT!" and flew across the hot, concrete and scooped it up! It IS a kind of penstemon!! Thanks for the help, ladies!

It is Physostegia virginiana aka Obediant plant.
