'Iron Maiden' Penstemon

Has anyone ever grown this? I bought the seeds last year from Veseys. It's not what came up. The one that came up has cherry red with tububular flowers with a white throat. I emailed them and they said it was the same penstemon barbatus but it looks more like the penstemon hartwegii that I saw in the William Dam catalogue. The reason I didn't think it was the barbatus, was that the description said it had glaucous foiage. Mine didn't. I was just wondering if anyone else had grown it and gotten something completely different? Veseys did end up giving me a credit. Marg
