Pentas, originally from Africa, have been a popular summer bloomer in Texas for many years. They do require regular watering, and are not the best choice for xeriscaping. Ideal for flowerbeds with good drainage and container planting.
The shiny and deeply veined foliage is a beautiful backdrop for the constant display of star shaped tubular flowers appearing in clusters from late spring to fall. Available in many colors, Graffiti Bright Red is a cultivar with red flowers. No matter the color, pentas easily attract bees, butterflies, and hummingbirds.
Pentas are often treated as an annual in central to north Texas, however can be perennial in southern Texas.
