Pentas

Posted by Picasa

This is a Penta that I overwintered in the greenhouse last winter. It has really thrived since I put it in a large pot. These are annuals, or tropicals, if you like that and they will not survive frost. They do well in full sun to partial shade. This one is in partial shade. They are sometimes called Egyptian Star Clusters or just star clusters. They come in several colors:pink, red, white, and lavender.
