About This Item
Great for the flower border or for containers, start Pentas seeds for a lovely plant that both butterflies and hummingbirds adore. Known as Egyptian Star Cluster and Star Flower, this lovely flower has a compact mounding habit and it produces clusters of star-shaped flowers that are rich in nectar.
Grows as a 12 inch perennial in USDA zones 9 - 11. In colder zones, grows as an annual.
Red Pentas flowers are especially attractive to pollinators, and you'll enjoy the activity surrounding their beautiful display. The Egyptian Star Cluster plant is vigorous and loves full sun.
Sow 4 - 5 seeds per plant. Pentas Starflower gives a full season of color. Grow Star Flower from Pentas seeds indoors in late winter. Use a quality seed starting mix and press the flower seeds into the mix. Do not cover the Star Flower seeds. Place clear plastic or glass over the starter tray or pots to help hold in moisture. Keep the flower seeds moist but not saturated. Place the trays in a south facing, sunny window for germination.
After hardening the seedlings for 10 days or more, transplant outdoors after frost season is over. Pentas flower care includes deadheading the spent flowers to promote continual blooming. Apply a fertilizer each month during the growing season. If the Pentas Egyptian Star Cluster plants are being grown as perennials, cut them back each fall.
