About this deal

Pentas are low maintenance plants. Provided they get plenty of water, sunshine, and heat, they will perform beautifully and reward you with an abundance of blooms. Deadhead pentas flowers to encourage more blooms. Young pentas plant care should include pinching off the stem ends to force a more compact plant. If you want more of these delightful plants, they are fairly easy to propagate. Pentas plants grow from seed or from softwood cuttings. Take cuttings in spring from terminal wood and dip the ends into a rooting hormone. Push the cut stem into a soilless medium, such as sand, that has been pre-moistened. The cutting will root and produce a new plant within a couple of weeks. Indoors in high-light situations and outdoors on patio tables you can try growing clumps of moss in small containers. Another small-space idea you could try is Japanese Marimo moss ball aquariums. These tiny so-called aquariums look great on a desktop or windowsill. Fertilize in spring with a slow release granular fertilizer. Mulch around in-ground plants to conserve water and repel weeds.

These plants grow fairly slow and are commonly found as container or bedding plants. Pentas plant care is similar to any warm season perennial. They are not prone to many diseases and the main pest problem is spider mites. From top to bottom: Moss pots, moss in a small planter, a Marimo moss ball aquarium, and last, wall moss graffiti. Pentas ( Pentas lanceolata) are also called Egyptian stars for the bloom’s five-pointed shape. The plant is a shrub that gets up to 6 feet (2 m.) tall and 3 feet (1 m.) wide. It is a scrubby plant with an unruly shape, sporting oval to spear-shaped foliage. The flowers are generally pink, red, or white but new cultivars have introduced tones of purple and lavender and mixed blooms such as pink with red centers. Planting perennials is an economical way of introducing year-round color and texture in the landscape. Pentas are warm region tropical blooming plants, so called because of the five-pointed petals on the flowers. The plants come in a profusion of colors, so learn how to care for pentas and enjoy their rich jewel tones. When you know how to grow pentas, you have a foolproof way of attracting hummingbirds and butterflies, too. Pentas Flowers Info
