Pentas
Pentas is one of the best pollinator-attracting plants around. Plant Pentas and the butterflies, hummingbirds will come! Great butterfly attraction that does best in part sun to part shade. Pentas have always been a staple to any Perennial or Butterfly Garden.
Pentas plants are annuals in most climates, however, they can be perennials in tropical areas. The overall habit of these plants is neat and compact. Overall, Pentas are pretty low-maintenance and are easy to grow in any garden setting.
Pentas grow well both in the ground and in containers, they also make a good houseplant with an adequate amount of light.
Dwarf varieties grow about 2 feet tall and come in pink, purple, red, and white. The larger varieties will stand 4 feet tall.
Pentas make great bedding and container plants. Ideally, pentas prefer to be planted in full sun and in moist, well-drained soil.
