Pentas 'Lucky Star® Mix'
Pentas lanceolata
Lucky Star® Mix is grown from an assorted seed mixture and contains 'Lucky Star® White', 'Lucky Star® Lipstick', 'Lucky Star® Lavender', 'Lucky Star® Dark Red', 'Lucky Star® Deep Pink', 'Lucky Star® Violet Improved', and 'Lucky Star® Pink'. One colour/plant per pot.
Pentas are heat-loving annuals with rounded clusters of small, star-shaped flowers held above green foliage. Their long bloom period and strong attraction to butterflies, bees, and hummingbirds make them a great choice for pollinator gardens, mixed planters, borders, and garden beds.
Pentas grow best in full sun to part shade with moist, well-drained soil. They tolerate heat and humidity well and bloom continuously through summer with regular watering and occasional deadheading.
Seasonal Availability: Typically May through July

Increase watering in the heat of summer and watch for wilting or browning as signs to increase watering frequency.
