Penstemon cinicola is a species of penstemon known by the common name ash penstemon. It is native to northeastern California and southern Oregon, where it grows in forests and plateau habitat. It is a perennial herb with upright branches 40 centimeters (16 in) maximum height. The leaves are 3 to 6 centimeters (1 1⁄4 to 2 1⁄4 in) long, linear in shape, folded lengthwise, and curved backwards. The inflorescence produces tubular flowers with wide lipped mouths. The flower is blue-purple in color, just under one centimeter (1⁄3 in) long, and hairless except for hairs on the floor of the mouth and on the staminode.
